Concerts at Crown Court

Each year we hold a series of concerts and recitals, featuring both instrumental and vocal performers from all over the world.

Performances take place on Wednesdays at lunchtime during spring and summer, providing a brief but precious musical escape from the office.  We also hold occasional Saturday evening concerts throughout the year for those with more pressing work commitments.

The size and acoustic of the church is especially good for smaller ensembles and this is reflected in many of the programmes with a strong emphasis on baroque music and solo performances.

The concerts are always of an excellent standard, frequently featuring undiscovered but highly talented performers, and are well worth hearing.

Our 2013 programme of lunchtime and evening concerts appears below.  For all concerts admission is free and there is a retiring collection.  Proceeds from the collections will be shared between the performers and the church lighting fund.
