Harlequin Singers will be the guest choir on the Sunday after Easter at “the fairest, goodliest, and most famous parish church in England.”, according to Queen Elizabeth I (we agree). St Mary Redcliffe is indeed fair and goodly and also has wonderful acoustics that we’ll be making the most of. We’ve got a lovely programme for both Sung Eucharist at 9.30am, and for Choral Evensong at 6.30pm.
