Tabley House Carol Concert selling fast!

29 Nov 2010

On Tuesday 7 December, followed by mince pies and Madeira

The traditional Carol Concert at Tabley House, organised by the Friends, is now only a couple of weeks away and proving as popular as ever, but there are still some tickets left for this most traditional of Christmas events.

The Concert is at 7.30pm on Tuesday 7 December and will be in the delightful old chapel at Tabley House. As usual, it will include carols and seasonal readings, both sacred and secular. The stars of the concert will nevertheless be the hugely popular Border Singers, who will provide a variety of choral pieces. Another tradition that ensures the popularity of Tabley’s Carol Concert are the mince-pies and Madeira wine at the end of the evening!

“The setting for the concert is again very appropriate, as the refurbishment of the chapel itself is our next project”, said Nick Payne, Chairman of the Friends. “I hope people buy their tickets early this year, as there was quite a crush for tickets last year, and we nearly had to turn people away!”

Tickets are £12 (£10 for Friends) from:

• Carole Cooper on 01565 654301

The Friends are also finalising their programme of events for the first half of next year and will announce these early in the New Year. “These events, whether they’re lectures, concerts or visits to houses or galleries, are always hugely enjoyable” said Nick Payne “and they’ll all raise the money for the Chapel”.
