bank balance! You will hear music for a coronation, for a couple’s silver
wedding, as an engagement present to a fiancé, for the inventor of the
metronome, for the opening of a funicular railway and a dedication to the
patron saint of music herself – St Cecilia plus more besides.
Tickets £6.00 (£5.00 concessionary) are available in advance from
Emmanuel Church office (Tel 632120 Monday to Friday 9am to 12 noon) Presence
