This concert, featuring an all-female line up, celebrates the diversity of musical styles and talents within our local area .

Levgenia Veasey

Claire Newborough
Emily Newborough
Sally- Ann Veasey

One of our performers/composers (Katherine Fear) has produced a retelling of a local tragedy – the murder of Mary Green (Polly Button) at the hands of her lover, John Danks in 1832. ‘

Sadly, in regards to violence against women, these tragic events still continue – in August 2021, Megan Newborough, daughter of the organist here at St Nicolas Church was also tragically murdered. As we stand with Megan’s family in their grief (some of whom are performing in this concert) we want to stand against violence towards women in all forms and raise awareness of the support organisations, campaigns and support groups available for those affected.

This special concert seeks to use music and the talent of our female performers to draw this community together against violence.
