Sunday, 15th July 2018


Dear Friends,

This week's 12.30 lunchtime concert is on Wednesday, on the modern pipe organ at Christ Church, Epsom Road, Leatherhead.

Our guest organist is David Oldfield who returns for a fourth visit to Leatherhead. For this Wednesday's concert he has a programme of Dubois, Buxtehude, Telemann, Mendelssohn, and JS Bach.

David has held several organist and director of music posts around the Surrey area, and also directs the cathedral stand-in choir Stag Montem Chorem.

You will find David Oldfield's full programme on the webpage linked below, along with sample recordings of the music itself:
                                              click the link below the photo for more details. ►

▼ Coming next week ▼

Rachel Broadbent, Philip Haworth, cor anglais, English horn, oboe d'amore, oboe, oboist, Connie Luk, piano, pianist, accompanist,
Last summer we had a very well-received oboe concert, so it seemed a good idea to plan another this year.

The performers have been brought together by Philip Haworth, oboe of the familiar and now highly successful Atéa Wind Quintet.

Philip has invited colleague Rachel Broadbent, so between the two of them the oboe, oboe d'amore and the cor anglais are well covered. The duo are joined by pianist Connie Luk.

There will be some beautiful pieces of music in this concert, so first please put Thursday July 26th in your diary!

With Philip and Rachel on tour over recent weeks, the final programme information is still coming in, and will build on the webpage linked below:

Dear Friend,


Debussy Centenary Piano Concert

Emilie also lectures and demonstrates on musical tours and cruises, and has a number of recordings and books published.

Dear Friend,

We have two concerts this week:

  • Wednesday 20th June, 12.30 lunchtime, organist Timothy Guntrip, at Christ Church
  • Thursday evening 21st June, 7.30pm, Roos String Quartet, at St Barnabas Church, Ranmore
Timothy Guntrip, organ,
Wednesday's 12.30 organ programme
Wednesday lunchtime's 12.30 organ concert, at Christ Church, Epsom Road, Leatherhead, brings us a new organist, Timothy Guntrip.

Timothy lived in Malta for a while, and is currently Assistant Director of Music at Holy Cross Church, Uckfield. He knows our organ well as he is part of the team that tunes it !

His programme moves through the 17th century and leaps forward to the later 19th century and the 20th. The full programme can be seen on the webpage linked below, along with sample recordings of the music itself:


Then on Thursday there is the first ever Music on Thursday Evening concert:

Music on Thursday Evening
at St Barnabas Ranmore
21st June at 7.30pm

The Roos String Quartet

Picture
Picture
This is a special evening concert indeed. 21st June is Make Music Day.

We are bringing together the two charities that support the Surrey Performing Arts Library - the Friends (FoSPAL) and the team pressing Surrey County Council for a safer long-term future for the Library - NewSPAL.

The newly-formed Roos String Quartet comprises violinist sisters Tatjana and Juliette Roos and cellist Frankie Carr. These three attended the Yehudi Menuhin School together. They are joined by a familiar face at Music on Thursdays and MAIASTRA concerts, viola player Ting-Ru Lai, who they met while studying at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama.

The quartet have put together a wonderfully balanced evening of music by Mozart, Bartok and Beethoven, followed by a Norwegian folk arrangement.

The aim of this free-to-enter concert is to raise funds to enable NewSPAL to take their plans for the Performing Arts Library further and thus show SCC that they are the 'safe pair of hands' the Library now needs.

As usual for an LCAS concert, there will be Gift Aid envelopes in the programmes, and collection baskets on the way out.

Pre-registration is essential for this concert as places are limited.

If you would like to listen to the music before you come along to St Barnabas Church, Ranmore, you will find sample video performances, and full concert details, on this link  ▼ - or go directly to the booking page to reserve your place  ▼

Dear Friend,

Yes, we have three concerts over the coming fortnight:
  • this Thursday 14th June, 12.30 lunchtime, Alice Bishop, soprano, and pianist Simon Marlow at LMC
  • next Wednesday 20th June, 12.30 lunchtime, organist Timothy Guntrip, at Christ Church
  • next Thursday evening 21st June, 7.30pm, Roos String Quartet, at St Barnabas Church, Ranmore
This week's Thursday lunchtime concert, in Leatherhead Methodist Church, features singer Alice Bishop with her accompanist Simon Marlow in songs from far and wide.

Purcell opens the concert, followed by Haydn and Grieg, and then more English songs, two German songs from Hugo Wolf (although one of those is a translation from Spanish), and we finish in positively Spanish mode.

If you would like to listen to the music before you come along you will find sample video performances, and full concert details, on the link below:

Next week's Wednesday lunchtime organ concert, at Christ Church, brings a new organist, Timothy Guntrip. Timothy lived in Malta for a while, and is currently Assistant Director of Music at Holy Cross Church, Uckfield. He knows our organ well as he is part of the team that tunes it!

Timothy's programme moves through the 17th century and leaps forward to the later 19th century and the 20th.

The full programme can be seen on the linked webpage, along with sample recordings of the music itself:

Music on Thursday Evening - 21st June, 7.30pm
at St Barnabas Ranmore

Roos String Quartet, Juliette Roos, violin, Tanja Roos, violin, Ting-Ru Lai, viola, Frankie Carr, cello,
This is a special evening concert indeed. 21st June is Make Music Day.

We are bringing together the two charities that support the Surrey Performing Arts Library - the Friends (FoSPAL) and the team pressing Surrey County Council for a safer long-term future for the Library - NewSPAL.

The newly-formed Roos String Quartet comprises violinist sisters Tatjana and Juliette Roos and cellist Frankie Carr. These three attended the Yehudi Menuhin School together. They are joined by a familiar face at Music on Thursdays concerts, viola player Ting-Ru Lai, who they met while studying at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama.

The quartet have put together a wonderfully balanced evening of music by Mozart, Bartok and Beethoven, followed by a Norwegian folk arrangement.

The aim of this free-to-enter concert is to raise funds for NewSPAL to take their plans for the Performing Arts Library further and thus show SCC that they are the 'safe pair of hands' the Library now needs. So, as usual for an LCAS concert, there will be Gift Aid envelopes in the programmes, and collection baskets on the way out.

Pre-registration is essential for this concert as places are limited.

If you would like to listen to the music before you come along to St Barnabas Church, Ranmore, you will find sample video performances, and full concert details, on this link:

In this Thursday's concert we shall hear our first ever singing group, and our very first guests from the University of Chichester's Music Department.

SSATB ensemble Crotchets and Quavers are bringing us a light classical feast from Mozart (Ave Verum), through Verdi, Puccini and Stainer, to Lloyd Webber, and Carol Bayer Sager.

I still don't have a photo of the group so I offer another illustration of the ensemble's name -  some crotchets and quavers. Please click on them for the full concert information and video performances of the music:

Asagi Nakata, piano, pianist,
In this Thursday's concert we shall hear the playing of Royal Academy of Music pianist Asagi Nakata. Asagi has chosen Liszt's Réminiscences des Puritains - which he based on themes from Bellini's opera I Puritani.

That will be followed by Schumann's Carnaval. Subtitled Little Scenes on Four Notes this suite of short pieces reflects a pre-Lent Carnival, in particular a masked ball and the characters there.

It is almost two years since Asagi Nakata originally planned to play for us in Leatherhead. That time she had to return to Japan for a piano competition. Two years on, we shall hear her perform, still at the Royal Academy of Music, but now as a Masters student.

You will find video performances of Thursday's piano works at the foot of the concert webpage - along with full details of the concert and Asagi's biography.



In this week's video we hear Asaga Nakata in her remarkably self-assured performance as a finalist in the 2016 Liszt Society International Piano Prize.

How wonderful to hear such a magnificent performer in our lunchtime concert.

Dear Friend,

Our next three Thursday lunchtime concerts will be performed by students from each of the music conservatoires with which Leatherhead's Lunchtime Concerts works - this week flautists from the London College of Music, next week a pianist from the Royal Academy of Music, and after that, the University of Chichester's vocal ensemble Crotchets & Quavers.
This Thursday we welcome three flautists from the London College of Music - Caera D'Arcy, Anna Hofmann, and Lara Currie - with their piano accompanist Timothy Adesina.

Their adventurous programme brings us music by Katherine Hoover, Francis Poulenc, Amanda Jane Fox, Gary Schocker, Jacques Ibert, and Tilmann Dehnhard - a mix of living and historic composers that includes some who were/are themselves flute players.

Incidentally... flutists? Or flautists? I thought 'flutist' was an appalling Americanism. I now understand it was a British English term originally.

Let's not argue over it! Instead come and enjoy this opportunity to hear three flutes, in Leatherhead Methodist Church, this Thursday at 12.30 lunchtime. Full details on this linked webpage.

You will find video performances of some of Thursday's music at the foot of the concert webpage.

Dear Friend,

After last Thursday's piano concert we held the Charity's AGM. Apart from the usual reports we had a special motion enabling us to appoint an Honorary President and Honorary Vice-Presidents.

I am pleased to announce that members agreed to appoint as our first Honorary President, John Burrows-Watson.

John was the first person Graham Davies spoke to when we were setting up LCAS and were looking for Trustees. Having been a School Bursar previously John did not hesitate to accept and was most encouraging as we jumped through all the hoops that appear at that early stage in a charity's life.

JBW has spent a lifetime in music, with Truro Cathedral under his belt as well as the Monteverdi Choir. Many know him as one of the original Lay Clerks of Guildford Cathedral, joining in the very first week of the cathedral's life, and still singing in the voluntary choir after his retirement. He also plays horn and I believe he has directed a number of G&S productions too, over the years. With a new Hon President on board we had better see what's coming this week.


John Sharples, organ, organist,
On Wednesday we welcome back Charlwood organist John Sharples for our 12.30 organ concert in Christ Church, Epsom Road. John played at Lambeth Palace for some 15 years and is still a deputy at Arundel Cathedral. His programme of Bach, Bridge, John Stanley, Brahms, and Mendelssohn is bound to please his listeners.

This week: Wednesdays at Christ Church
Our concert at 12.30 lunchtime on Wednesday 18th April, will be in
Christ Church, Epsom Road, Leatherhead (KT22 8ST).

John Sharples is organist and Director of Music at

There is plenty of choice next weekend too, including William Whitehead at the magnificent Royal Festival Hall organ, Bramley's Rising Stars concert with pianist Varvara Tarasova, Alexei Grynyuk (piano) at Dorking Halls, an evening of classical opera in Weybridge, and Sunday's Founder's Day Concert at the Yehudi Menuhin School.

Dear Friend,
Welcome to this week's newsletter which you will also find online here along with a printable copy of the concert calendar from now to the end of August - and no gaps this time.

This Thursday we welcome cellists Jacqueline Phillips and Nicola Tait for our 12.30 concert in Leatherhead Methodist Church. Jacqueline has been here several times over the 7 years of these concerts and often introduces us to excellent musicians like Nicola.

The cello's range covers
more than a bass singer, a tenor, an alto and a soprano! Hearing two cellos together makes for a beautiful blend of musical sounds.

For our lunchtime concert Jacqueline & Nicola are to play music by Handel, Leoncavallo, Bizet, Offenbach, and for some fun at the end of the programme, a couple of teaching pieces by Ros Stephen. There are snippets of these works in videos at the foot of the concert webpage.

Leatherhead Concert & Arts
Music on Thursdays at LMC
  ♦  Wednesdays at Christ Church


Monday, 26th March 2018


Dear Friend,

Sixty of us enjoyed last week's Music on Thursdays concert and we are looking forward to this week and indeed every lunchtime concert up to the end of November.

It was good to see people taking advantage of us saying wheelchair users are positively encouraged to come along. Two came to the organ concert, and another last Thursday.

We also had four members of Leatherhead Art Club sketching away discretely on Thursday. (This is a
privlege only open to LAC members.)

This Thursday we welcome for our 12.30 concert in Leatherhead Methodist
Church students from the Royal Academy of Music. Though born in Japan, viola player Daichi Yoshimura was brought up in England. His accompanist will be fellow RAM student Henry Cash.

Below you will find links to two video performances of the works in Daichi and Henry's concert - part of a concerto by Carl Stamitz, and the main work of the concert, Rebecca Clarke's Sonata for Viola and Piano. The videos appear on the concert webpage too, along with biographies
for
the two young musicians.

We hope this will whet your appetite to hear the music played live. But if you are stuck in the office, or are caring for someone at home, you could make these videos your very own lunchtime concert.

Dear Friends,


Monthly Organ Concerts begin this

Next week we come to the first Music on Thursdays chamber concert of the year when we bring together three Royal Academy of Music friends - and familiar faces for the lunchtime concert audience too - Emily Andrews (flute), Anna Hashimoto (clarinet) and pianist Daniel King Smith.

Dear Friends,


First there is the matter of last Thursday's postponed AGM and piano concert. These will both take place on April 12th, with Oliver Till's piano concert at 12.30 lunchtime in Leatherhead Methodist Church. Then at 2pm (ie, after we have had a cup of something) the AGM. Everyone is welcome to attend the AGM.

Next week brings the first of our monthly organ concerts - Wednesdays at Christ Church. Guest organist this month is Graham Thorpe who is doing very well gaining organ playing and choir directing experience in London's major churches. Graham's concert is at 12.30 lunchtime, next Wednesday, 14th March, at Christ Church, Epsom Road, Leatherhead KT22 8AT.

The week after that sees our first Music on Thursdays chamber concert of the year when we bring together three Royal Academy of Music friends - friends of these lunchtime concerts too - Emily Andrews (flute), Anna Hashimoto (clarinet) and pianist Daniel King Smith. Those three phenomenal talents will be together for us on Thursday 22nd March, at 12.30 in Leatherhead Methodist Church.

Dear Friends,


Picture
Given the expected weather
Thursday's piano concert and AGM
will *NOT* proceed

The AGM will be held at 2pm after the concert on 12th April.
We will talk to Oliver Till about a concert date later in the season.

Picture
Well that's the weather warning dealt with ! It's not looking good for Thursday, but there is just a slight chance the worst might pass us by. I'm keeping an eye on BBC Weather.
Oliver Till, Ollie Till, piano, pianist,
A Bach Partita and Grieg's Holberg Suite - I have been looking forward to Thursday's 3pm piano concert at Leatherhead Methodist Church for quite a while, so I really hope it can go ahead. This unusually timed concert always feels like the reward for a good AGM !

We first met Oliver Till in August last year when he was accompanist in a very successful oboe concert. For one who looks so young he has a lot of good work on his CV. Do take a look at his biography on the concert webpage.

If you would like to join us for the AGM, then come in by the red doors. We start at 2pm, with tea & coffee from 1.40pm, and again between the meeting and the concert.


Our first organ concert in this year's Wednesdays at Christ Church monthly series takes place on Wednesday 14th March, at Christ Church, on Epsom Road. Christ Church has the benefit of plentiful on-site parking.

Guest organist at our usual time of 12.30 lunchtime will be Graham Thorpe, currently Organ Scholar at Brompton Oratory. Graham's interesting recital programme is ready on this concert webpage.

Picture
That is followed a week later, at 12.30 on Thursday 22nd March, by our concert for flute, clarinet, and piano - full details on the concert webpage here.

And then we get to March 29th. I'm hearing from the Royal Academy of Music that they have a viola player who is keen to come to us and just has to decide on an accompanist. As soon as more details come in, I will set up a concert webpage and add a link here too.


Both of these concerts will take place in Leatherhead Methodist Church, in the one-way section of Church Road. To be sure of a space, we recommend parking inthe Swan Centre / Sainsburys multi-storey car park. It's about 5-7 minutes walk from LMC.

All of our concerts are free to enter, with a retiring collection to cover costs. £6 seems a reasonable donation for this type of short concert - they are usually 35-45 minutes. If there are several players then it's appropriate to offer more as we do pay good rates to working musicians.

We have tea and coffee ready after the lunchtime concerts, and you'll find both churches have level access throughout. There is more about the churches including maps, on our homepage.

Let's take a look at some of the other concerts coming up locally over the next couple of weeks. To avoid disappointment, please check with concert organisers if the weather looks unreliable.

Monday, 19th February 2018

Dear Friends,


Oliver Till, Ollie Till, piano, pianist,
The top of this week's newsletter is going to look pretty similar to the top of the previous one !

Although the Royal Academy of Music are promising music from the string department for the end of March we still don't know who that will be - violin, viola, or cello.

But we do know how the month opens, and that is at 3pm on Thursay March 1st with Bach's Partita in C minor, and Grieg's Holbertg Suite. Our pianist will be Oliver Till (pictured) who first played for us last August when he accompanied oboist and fellow RAM student Amy Roberts. Full details of Oliver Till's programme are available on this concert webpage.


We then take a week's break before embarking on our weekly schedule of concerts in their usual 12.30 time slot. And they will run through to the end of November again.

August is going to be a bit special with a mini-festival of Early & Baroque concerts, and a guest organist from Germany, who is in fact Colombian.

But let's take a look at March first.

Wednesdays at Christ Church begins again on Wednesday 14th March (the day before the 3rd Thursday). Guest organist at 12.30 lunchtime will be Graham Thorpe, currently Organ Scholar at Brompton Oratory. Graham's interesting recital programme is ready on this concert webpage.

Picture
Then our next three performers, all old hands at Leatherhead's lunchtime concerts, have been working hard all winter preparing a superb concert programme for us.

On Thursday March 22nd, at our usual 12.30 lunchtime, Music on Thursdays launches into its 2018 season at Leatherhead Methodist Church with music for woodwind and piano by Rameau, Schumann, Telemann, and Saint-Säens.

Those familiar performers are our good friends Emily Andrews, flute, Anna Hashimoto, clarinet, and Daniel King Smith, at the piano.

Emily Andrews, flute, Anna Hashimoto, clarinet, Daniel King Smith, piano,
flute • clarinet • piano • concert programme
We are fortunate indeed to be able to bring these three busy RAM friends together for a concert. Please click on the blue bar for full details of this concert.

As ever these concerts are free to attend, with a retiring collection afterwards. (Inflation being what it is, it would be really helpful if audience members could develop a 'three £2 coins' habit - rather than the £5 note habit of recent times.) We are really grateful to the people who put in even more as this helps to fund the flow of professional performers we find to mix in with the students.

Tea and coffee are available after each lunchtime concert (but before the 3pm 1st March concert, and before the 2pm AGM). And you will find level access in both churches - Leatherhead Methodist Church and Christ Church, Epsom Road (including toilets).

PARKING ! Christ Church has lots of space on site, but unfortunately LMC does not. So for concerts at LMC please head to the Swan Centre multi-storey car park or the one behind Waitrose, in Church Street. They are about 5-7 minutes walk from Church Road and LMC.

It is time to take a look at what other societies are up to for the rest of this month and the beginning of March. Here are some we know about, from our musicinsurrey.co.uk site:
Thursday 22nd February 2018 **6.30pm  ♦  Stoke d'Abernon: Menuhin Hall, Cobham Road

Tuesday, 6th February 2018

Dear Friends,


Welcome to another of our occasional winter newsletters. Let's not dwell on the word 'winter'. It looks like being a chilly week.

I hope you have seen the notice about the Performing Arts Library at the top of this page. Do please come to Thursday morning's meeting if at all possible. Your dram soc, choir, or orchestra, and the amateur performers whose music and plays you regularly go to see and hear all depend on resources like this specialist library.

Our own countdown is well and truly on now. Our first event is the 2pm AGM on Thursday March 1st at Leatherhead Methodist Church (as ever, please don't try to park on site). We'll have the kettle gong from 1.40pm, and again at the end of the meeting.

If you are a member you should receive a copy of the papers for the AGM by the middle of next week. Or you can download the file below, which is available to everyone. The AGM is open to all, all can speak, ask questions, but only members are allowed to vote on motions and elect trustees.

On the back of the agenda page of the document above is the current state of concert bookings for this year. There are still many gaps!
Or you can see the same info on the Diary Page.

At 3pm on March 1st our public piano concert will be given by a young player we met last August when he was accompanying excellent oboist and fellow RAM student, Amy Roberts. Oliver Till should be sending over his programme any day now so do keep an eye on this concert webpage.

Our opening organ concert at Christ Church, Epsom Road takes place at 12.30 on Wednesday March 14th, when our guest organist is once again Graham Thorpe, who is now Organ Scholar at London's Brompton Oratory. More details as they come in, on this concert webpage.

And on Thursday 22nd March at 12.30, for our opening concert of the 2018 season in LMC, we welcome three long-standing friends of Music on Thursdays - flautist Emily Andrews, clarinettist Anna Hashimoto, and pianist Daniel King Smith. You can read more about them and see their Rameau, Telemann, Schumann, Saint-Säens programme on this concert webpage.
Emily Andrews, flute, Anna Hashimoto, clarinet, Daniel King Smith, piano,
The stage concert bookings have reached is that Royal Academy of Music students are being offered dates this week and next. Once they choose we will be able to see what they are bringing us and what gaps that leaves in the diary and what instruments seem under-represented.

A couple of Autumn dates are being held for students of the University of Chichester Music Dept, and we hope to find room for some London College of Music concerts as well.

August 2018 will be our Early & Baroque Music Festival, taking place each week at LMC or in the Old Chapel at St John's School.

Meanwhile, all of the Wednesdays at Christ Church organ concert dates are filled, and we have our international invitee for Wednesday 15th August in the School Chapel on St John's Main Quad. Once again Anthony Cairns has found us some new younger organists and we include three ladies. Anthony and I meet more young organists all the time, which is really encouraging for the future of the instrument. You can check out this year's organ concert info here.

But it's never all about us ! Here is a selection of the concerts on offer in Surrey for the rest of the month:
Saturday 10th February 2018              **5pm start**   ♦  Bookham: St Nicolas Church

Music on Thursdays at LMC
  ♦  Wednesdays at Christ Church

Wednesday, 10th January 2018

Dear Friends,


With no concerts of our own at the moment it is difficult to know how to open this newsletter. However there is one urgent matter still needing our attention.

This Saturday morning at 10.30am there will be a meeting in Christ Church, Epsom Road, Leatherhead, presenting a public update on progress so far regarding Surrey Performing Arts Library at Denbies.

SCC's original idea of total closure has been set aside. Now Surrey Library Service's officers on the one hand, and a group of local people supported by MakingMusic and top specialist librarians, have been looking at alternative futures for the music and drama collections.

Please see the letter (below my sign-off) where Barbara Eifler explains the situation. Barbara also offers a link to pre-book your (free) ticket - so we have a good idea of the numbers planning to attend. Tea and coffee will be available before the meeting.

This year's concert bookings are taking a slow start, although there may be more news on the organ side fairly soon.

Our 3pm AGM piano concert on Thursday March1st is confirmed, with the return of gifted RAM graduate Oliver Till. I have my fingers crossed for the first concert of the chamber season, on March 22nd.

May 10th will be our first concert by students of the University of Chichester. On this occasion the performers are SSATB ensemble Crochets and Quavers !

The next task is to fit in the requirements of the two main conservatoires, RAM and LCM. Only then will it become clear what is missing from the mix. So it is still a case of 'watch this space'.

And so to our usual business of other people's concerts. Here is this month's extract from the musicinsurrey diary:

The Future of Surrey Performing Arts Library -
the UK's third largest collection of music and drama sets and reference works

From: Barbara Eifler <barbara@makingmusic.org.uk>
Subject: Surrey Performing Arts Library - public meeting 13 January

Dear All,
 
There will be a public meeting with an update on the future of the Surrey Performing Arts Library (SPAL) on Saturday 13 January, 10.30-12.30 in Leatherhead.

If you wish to attend, please register (free) here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-future-of-surrey-performing-arts-library-progress-meeting-tickets-41491819148 
 
Since November, Making Music, FOSPAL (Friends of SPAL) and IAML (International Association of Music Librarians - UK & Ireland) have been working with Surrey County Council (SCC) officers on developing an 'Option 2', i.e. of a SPAL independent of SCC and what that might look like.

We have identified three sub-options, one of which would involve SPAL being run by a new Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) which we are in the process of setting up, in case it is required for this purpose.
Meanwhile, SCC are also working on fully developing 'Option 1', i.e. retaining SPAL within SCC but splitting music and drama and locating them in two different libraries in Surrey, and dispersing single items (e.g. specialist books on music/performing arts) throughout SCC libraries.

In the short-term, SCC will also have to increase charges to reduce the budget short-fall at SPAL.

This meeting is therefore to update you on work and progress made so far and to invite comments and feedback to guide future discussions.
SCC have issued a fuller written update which you can find here: https://www.surreycc.gov.uk/libraries/news-and-events-in-surrey-libraries/library-news/surrey-performing-arts-library-consultation 

Timeline for decision-making for SPAL:

8 February, 10am, Kingston: SCC Communities Select Committee will receive report from SCC officers (including an appendix from Making Music/FOSPAL/IAML) and decide on recommendations for SCC Cabinet - PLEASE ATTEND IF YOU CAN.

27 March, 2pm, Kingston: SCC Cabinet meeting will take decision on SPAL based on recommendations from the Communities Select Committee - PLEASE ATTEND IF YOU CAN.

This notice - or a similar one! - is being sent to FOSPAL members, Making Music members and to SPAL users - so apologies if you are receiving it more than once. Please disseminate it more widely to those with an interest in the future of this vital service.

best wishes
Barbara

Monday, 27th November 2017

Dear Friends,

LATE NEWS:

SURREY PERFORMING ARTS LIBRARY:
Please scroll down to the yellow area for an update from Barbara Eifler of Making Music.

This Thursday's 12.30 lunchtime concert in Leatherhead Methodist Church features our friends the Atéa Wind Quintet, with a couple of friendly substitutions.

Anna Hashimoto will be leading the quintet with her clarinet. Phillip Haworth will be on oboe, while flautist Katy Ovens will be moonlighting from Cavendish Winds. Also deputising will be Anna Douglass on horn, with regular Ashley Myall, bassoon.

Atéa's programme opens with a Humoreske by Zemlinsky. Next we'll hear three melodious movements by Bozza with the title 'Three night music pieces'. The first of Poulenc's Novelettes follows, leading into the final work, Taffanel's Quintet in G minor.

Atéa's playing always brings a joyous feel to our concerts. What a great way to end a season where we have enjoyed so many varied talents.

Atéa Wind Quintet, Chris Beagles, French horn, Philip Haworth, oboe, Anna Hashimoto, clarinet, Alena Lugovkina, flute, Ashley Myall, bassoonAtéa - the regular line-up
You can read about the quintet and listen to recordings of the music that they will perform at Thursday's concert, on this concert webpage. Two of the recordings were made by Atéa themselves.

These 12.30 lunchtime concerts are free to enter, with a retiring collection to cover costs.

LMC has level acess throughout so please take full advantage of the easy wheelchair access (including the loos).

After our concerts we linger over tea and coffee to chat together and - if they are not rushing off to other gigs - with the musicians too.

We will be back with an extra mid-afternoon piano concert at 3pm on Thursday March 1st. That follows our AGM which is at 2pm the same afternoon. Unusually that day the teas will be ready before the meeting and again before the concert.

If you would like us to keep in touch through the winter and make sure you receive a copy of our Spring/Summer programme please your request to musiconthursdays@gmail.com - if you include your address we will be able to make sure you receive a paper copy of the programme.

Leatherhead Concert & Arts
Music on Thursdays at LMC
  ♦  Wednesdays at Christ Church

Monday, 20th November 2017

Dear Friends,


We have just two more lunchtime concerts this year before our winter break. So let's look at this Thursday's concert first:

Harpist Gwenllian Llŷr came to us for the first time in August 2016 when she was studying at the Royal Academy of Music - having already graduated from the Royal Welsh. The harp is such a lovely gentle instrument, and Gwenllian showed us then that she is a superb performer.

In Thursday's 12.30 concert Gwenllian will perform music by a number of composers who were - or are - themselves harpists, and she will include some of her own compositions as well. You can hear samples of the music by going to the foot of the concert webpage and clicking on the videos and links there.

The sad coincidence of losing our dear friend Gaenor a few weeks ago seemed to almost require that our harp concert be dedicated to that lovely lady harpist, who had herself been a Bard of Gorsedd, given her chair at a National Eisteddfod many years ago.

Let's not be sad. No black ties, please. We shall enjoy this concert like any other, like all those concerts Gaenor herself attended over the last five years or so.

Come and hear excellent harp-playing by an extremely talented musician with a growing international reputation. And you can ask her about her honeymoon too - but please, wait until after the concert for that.

Full details of Gwenllian's harp concert at 12.30 on Thursday 23rd November are on this concert webpage.

And then we really do come to our final concert of the year.

Our guests on Thursday 30th November will be the wonderfully lively Atéa Wind Quintet.

This year they bring us music by Alexander Zemlinsky, Eugène Bozza, Francis Poulenc, and a favourite of theirs, Paul Taffanel.

You can listen to samples of the music Atéa will be performing and discover a little about the quintet on this concert webpage. Their concert will be a really good finish to a brilliant year of concerts.

These 12.30 lunchtime concerts in Leatherhead Methodist Church are free to enter, and are funded by your contribution in the basket as you leave. Let's be honest here, paper still beats plastic in these collections, and plastic beats metals.

At the end of the year the charity that runs these concerts - LCAS -  aims to give the Churches a donation equivalent to the sort of amount they could have received if they had rented their buildings to us for each concert day.


After our concerts we have tea and coffee ready, creating a moment for chat together and, if they are not rushing on to other engagements, with the musicians too.

LMC has level access throughout so we positively encourage wheelchair users to come along. Aim to arrive by 12 midday and you might even be able to park on site (blue badge only).

PARKING: it's the one thing LMC lacks. So we recommend the Swan Centre multi-storey or the Church Street car park. Frustratingly, the closest one, behind the Parish Church Hall, tends to be full by mid-morning. Allow about 5-8 minutes to walk from the car park to the Church, which is in the one-way section of Church Road. There's a map on our homepage.

Next let's take a look at what other societies and venues within reach of East Surrey have on offer over the coming week or two. These are taken from our diary website musicinsurrey.co.uk, a service we offer to other music organisations in the area:

To make sure your society's events are included in the 2018 musicinsurrey diary please ask your publicity contact to send full information to us at: musiconthursdays@gmail.com.

Just two Leatherhead lunchtime concerts left for this year. Do come along and enjoy fine performance over the lunch hour. And, as always, I hope you enjoy your selection of the events listed above.
