2022 Summer Concert at Minsteracres

Each year Antiphon end their season with a more laid back Summer Concert where we get the opportunity to lighten up the programme with a mixture of contemporary and traditional music. It also gives choir members the opportunity to perform smaller group pieces and play various instruments in the concert. This year is no exception and we hope that you enjoy the programme we have put together.
Our Summer Concert is set within the wonderful grounds of The Minsteracres Retreat Centre, and you are cordially invited to explore the grounds prior to the concert which will take place in the Ballroom. At the interval there will also be a buffet which is included in the ticket price and there is a reduced price for under 16s. A licenced bar is available where you will be able to purchase wine, soft drinks and other delights to compliment the buffet being provided by the Minsteracres team. As a "taster", some of the pieces that we will be performing include:
Coronation Corner:
Zadok The Priest - Handel
Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen
O Taste and See - R Vaughan Williams
Musical Bluebirds:
The Blue Bird - C.V. Stanford
