Welcome to Music at St Martin’s
Last year we celebrated our 10th Anniversary in style and were very grateful, not only to all our wonderful artists, but to everyone who contributed in kind, by way of sponsorship, donations, season tickets, and by “being there” on the night. We had excellent attendances and ended the year with a substantial surplus which we hope will enable St Martin’s PCC to launch their Special Appeal in 2015 with confidence.
With a view to raising significant sums towards the maintenance of St Martin’s Church, we are trying to establish sponsorship as a regular feature of our Concert Seasons and are especially grateful to The Countess of Munster Musical Trust, John & Joy Pye, Julius Geeson of Smallwood Architects and Bill & Sue Clements – all of whom are sponsoring concerts again in 2015. We also owe a debt of gratitude to our Presidents Miranda & Orlando Rock, and many others including the following who have supported us in various ways: Lady Victoria & Mr Simon Leatham, The Forbes Charitable Trust, Martin & Loraine Bust, Tim & Stefa Hart, Adnams of Southwold, Dan Williams of Ink Design & Print (Peterborough) together with the Incumbent, Church Wardens & PCC of St Martin’s.
We hope you will enjoy the exciting series of events in our 2015 Season of Music at St Martin’s.
