Concert raises money for Musical Keys

On Saturday Jan and I went to a concert in Wymondham Abbey. It had been organised by Samantha Jessop as part of her UEA studies. The abbey was packed to hear performances from choir, barbershop quartet, wind duo, dulcimer etc.


Lauren Cawston and Charlotte Odell


Broadside Revival (How long did she say we had to sing for?)


Encore


Samantha Jessop

Sam did fantastically well in getting sponsors for the concert. One of them, local pub The Green Dragon, provided a free buffet in the interval. Now that's the kind of interval I like! The concert was very enjoyable, the highlight for me being the wind duo of Lauren Cawston and Charlotte Odell playing numbers on clarinet, saxophone and flute.

The money raised was all going to local charity Musical Keys, which supports young people with special needs through music and movement.
