This concert raised £187 in cash donations for the Sanktus Welfare Project.
The sum should be considerably higher once any online donations have
been counted. We would like to thank Nick for his brilliant clarinet and sax
playing, the extra musicians who joined us for the concert, and Rose and
Richard from Sanktus for extra refreshments and for getting the crowds in.

Mike Walker (1935-2022) was our much-missed, long-term saxophone player,
who died in September, aged 87. Listen to a computer realisation of the
carol medley we played as an encore at the end of this concert,
arranged specially by Keith Bramich, in memory of Mike.
Our performance of the medley ended with Nick Charles playing
a well-known carol on saxophone.
