On Saturday week Palmers Green United Reformed Church will be the venue for Music in April - a special concert organised by local musican Carolyn Kindberg raising money for Leading Lights Tuition.
Carolyn has been organising charity concerts in Palmers Green for several years, in conjunction with another local musician, pianist Judith Crawford. They employ local players who they know from Winchmore Strings, the Enfield Chamber Orchestra and other local ensembles - in some cases they have been playing together for more than twenty years.
Music in April will begin with a series of short individual performances on the piano, violin, oboe and voice by some local talented young people who are pupils of Carol and Judith or of their friends.
The eclectic programme will include
- Vivaldi: Concerto for Two Violins in A minor
- Vivialdi: concerto for Four Violins in B minor
- Mozart: Voi che sapete
- Ludovico Einauldi: L'Onde
- Astor Piazzolla: Libertango
- Johnny Burke and Errol Garner: Misty
Performers include Carolyn Kindberg, Michael Lovejoy, Chris Gundry and Amanda Ladell (violins), Maureen Molloy and Celia Desmond (violas), and Sally Hems ('cello).
Carolyn chose the not-for-profit organisation Leading Lights Tuition because she has a working link with them as a tutor. Many young people are unfairly missing out on their essential education because they have to care for a sick parent or relative. Leading Lights Tuition addresses this disadvantage by providing quality tuition for these students from their team of qualified and experienced tutors.
There will be refreshments of tea, coffee, squash and a selection of delicious home-made cakes served in the interval - which is all included in the ticket price, as is a programme giving details of performances. Children 18 and under are admitted free.
