****Big News****
We have decided to change our chosen charity. For the upcoming concert on 22nd November we will be raising money either via card or the usual cash buckets. Please bring along any spare cash you may have for this very worthy cause!!
Details of the charity are as follows ;

The Ukrainian Association of Music Events (UAME) is a Kyiv-based NGO founded by music industry professionals in 2019.
Since the start of russia's full-scale invasion, our charity initiative Music Saves Ukraine has raised over EUR 850,000 and partnered with 100+ European festivals and artists. But we don't just fundraise at events – we deliver direct support to Ukraine's cultural infrastructure.
Today our main focus is children's music education: together with the Culture & Education for Life Foundation, we've printed 31,650 new textbooks for art schools across the country – the first major update in over 30 years. We also run a financial support programme for art schools in frontline and rural areas all over Ukraine – over two seasons, we have supported 30 art schools across Ukraine in purchasing more than 430 musical instruments and pieces of equipment.
Even in the hardest times, we invest in the long-term perspective – because future headliners are born in music schools.

Rare Elgar from Adrian Brown

By Philip Petchy

The Elgar Sinfonia of London (leader Ryo Koyama) under Adrian Brown continue their illuminating series of concerts of works by Elgar that are not frequently performed. On 21 June 2026 it was the turn of the Organ Sonata (Op. 28) as orchestrated by Gordon Jacob. Many have noted the orchestral qualities of the original work and Gordon Jacob enthusiastically accepted a commission to orchestrate it. There were those who attended this splendid performance who were left wondering whether or not they actually preferred this version.
It was followed by six orchestral songs from Opp. 48, 59 and 60. They were beautifully performed by Emily Gray, who looked cool despite the heat! We also enjoyed Gerald Finzi’s setting of Wordsworth’s Ode: Intimations of Immortality. It is beautiful music even if perhaps the words are a bit complicated to be given a musical setting. Nick Allen and the excellent London Chorus (chorus master William Vann) were both in good voice.
Elgar Works provided assistance for the Gordon Jacob arrangement and the Sinfonia continues to be supported by Colin and Clare Croly.
The next concert is on 22 November 2026 and will be celebrating the 75th anniversary of the Elgar Society. Chopin’s Funeral March as orchestrated by Elgar is perhaps not a work with which you would normally start a birthday party – but you will also hear the Concert Allegro for piano and Falstaff. If you are able to get to St Andrew’s, Holborn you should certainly put the date in your diary now!
