Vaughan Williams Serenade to Music
Schubert Mass No.2 in G
Bach Brandenburg Concerto No.3
Howard Goodall Eternal Light
Howard Goodall’s melodious and moving requiem is his most popular choral work since his music for The Vicar of Dibley. Schubert’s lovely little Mass is just 200 years old, and the enchanting Serenade by Vaughan Williams gives a nod to this year’s 400th Shakespeare anniversary.

Always wanted to learn guitar but never got around to it? Want to trade your air guitar skills for real guitar skills? It is never too late to learn. Learn guitar right from the very beginning. This is a foundation course for those with little to no experience of playing guitar. You will learn how to hold a guitar and to make the right noises out of it. The aim of these lessons is to get you playing your first song within 4 weeks of lessons, as no-one takes up guitar to strum random chords, it’s all about the songs.
If you are returning to guitar having not played for some time and can barely remember chords this is a great way of getting back into the swing of things.
If you've never played guitar you need to book on the Absolute Beginners course!
These classes are split by skills level;
Beginners A - Recently completed the Absolute Beginners course but still some way to go. Yet to tackle bar chords and complicated rhythms.
Beginners B - Well on the way and able to do bar chords
Beginners C - Almost Intermediate but not quite yet.
