Christmas with Streatham Choral - Children's Matinée

**CANCELLATION NOTICE**

Having considered further, the Committee have decided to cancel our Christmas concerts on Saturday. Whilst disappointing, the Committee feel it is the best way forward in light of the rapidly changing picture and the knock-on challenges of delivering the concerts safely and successfully. We hope to be back singing in the New Year, but will keep the situation under review.

Whitacre Lux Aurumque

Nixon The Holly & the Ivy

For this charity concert we will perform Whitacre’s Lux Aurumque, together with some traditional carols and readings. Please come and join conductor Calum Fraser and members of Streatham Choral for an afternoon of festive music and mince pies - perfect for families and children!

  • Conductor: Calum Fraser

  • Organist: Samuel Ali

Tickets: £8.00 (£6.00 concessions) - under 12s go free. Available online, on the door, or from members of the choir. There is a booking fee of £0.80 per ticket (£0.60 concessions) for online booking.

Advance booking (including for under 12s) is essential to avoid disappointment.

Autumn Concert - Gloria!

Autumn Concert - Gloria!

Handel Zadok the Priest

Haydn Little Organ Mass

Vivaldi Gloria

Come and join us for the first concert of our 2021/22 season and our first concert in almost two years! We present a baroque and classical feast for the senses.

  • Conductor: Calum Fraser

  • Organist: Samuel Ali

  • Soprano: Andrea Manuel

  • Mezzo-Soprano: Katie Richardson McCrea

Doors: 6:45pm for a 7:30pm start.

Tickets: £10.00 (£8.50 concessions). Available online, from members of the choir, or on the door - until sold out. Please note that there is a booking fee of £1.00 per ticket (£0.85 concessions) for online booking.

Seating: Maximum audience: 250. Unallocated and available on a first-come-first-served basis. 60 socially-distanced seats available in the gallery. Please email us at streathamchoral@gmail.com if you would like to be added to the list for one of these seats.

Programmes and bar: We investigated the possibility of a cashless system for the bar and programmes, but unfortunately this was not an easy task without access to a card machine. We are investigating this for future concerts, but in the interim will need to operate a cash bar (£3 wine / £0.50 juice) and cash donations for programmes (suggested donation: £1)

COVID-19 requirements and adjustments: We would encourage everyone to take a lateral flow test before attending the concert - particularly if they are not double vaccinated. Given that, post-vaccination, COVID-19 symptoms can be more akin to the common cold and much less distinctive, we would ask that you do not attend the concert if you feel at all unwell. We also encourage the wearing of masks when not singing or drinking.

There will be hand sanitizer available around the church, and we will also ventilate the building by way of open windows and an open side door.
