Name: Folk Connections at Christ Church Frome
Start: 2026-05-07T13:15:00+01:00
Location: Christ Church Church

Trio Paradis (Jacquelyn Bevan - piano, Ruth O’Shea - violin & Linda Stocks - cello) play a Café Concert on the first Thursday of each month at 1.15pm at Christ Church: a themed 45-minute concert of mainly classical music, introduced by the performers. There is a pop-up café open from 12.45pm where you can meet friends and make new ones over tea/coffee and home-made cakes.
April-May’s music is a collection of pieces based on folk tunes and idioms: English (Butterworth: The Banks of Green Willow) and Irish (Joan Trimble Phantasy Trio) feature, but alongside these are a few surprises!
An RSVP via our website is appreciated, but you can just turn up - maybe bring a cushion for the pew. Christ Church can be a bit chilly so please dress warmly. As of 2026 there are now blankets provided! Trio Paradis Cafe Concerts are 'pay-what-you-feel' via a retiring collection, to keep live music affordable for everyone.
