NORTH Yorkshire harpist Lucinda Taylor will play a varied selection of classical music at September 19’s Dementia Friendly Tea Concert at St Chad’s Church, Campleshon Road, York, at 2.30pm.
As usual, 45 minutes of music will be followed by tea and homemade cakes in the church hall. “The event is a relaxed concert, ideal for people who may not feel comfortable at a formal classical concert, so we do not mind if the audience wants to talk or move about,” says co-organiser Alison Gammon.
“Seating is unreserved and there is no admission charge although donations are welcome. We give the hire cost to the church and the rest goes to Alzheimer’s charities.”
The church has a small car park; further parking can be found on Campleshon Road, but please allow plenty of time to find a space. Wheelchair access is via the church hall.
Musicians are confirmed for the remaining 2024 concerts: October 17, Billy Marshall, French horn, and Robert Gammon, piano; November 21, Giocoso Wind Ensemble; December 12, Ripon Resound Choir. All will start at 2.30pm.
