Join us for an enchanting programme of music and readings, performed by the glow of candlelight on a long midsummer day. Enjoy glorious choral music from across the centuries – seasonal favourites and little-known gems - inspired by birdsong, holidays, sea and sunshine. What better way to celebrate the return of summer and the easing of restrictions.
Audience distancing and other COVID safety precautions will be in place.
