MATHON’S 11th Century church provided a most beautiful setting and excellent acoustics for a performance on Saturday, September 20 by the Worcestershire Saxophone Ensemble’s Quartet led by Louisa Davidson on Soprano, with Jackie Harris on Alto, Kate Moroni on Tenor and Sue Sneath on Baritone.

The programme included Hungarian Dances by Farkas (1959), and Premier Quatuor op53 by Singelée (1857), as well as works by four modern UK composers.

The 86 people who attended all enjoyed the friendly evening very much, including a free glass of wine in the interval!

Closing the event the Rector, Robert Ward thanked everyone for coming and the players for their brilliant and stimulating work. Net proceeds of £600 went to the Church Fabric Fund.
