It is with sincere regret we announce that today's Lunchtime Recital at St Clement's will not take place due to unforeseen circumstances this weekend. Apologies to all who were looking forward to today's recital by soprano Kristi Bryson. We will be rescheduling her performance to a future recital series.

Next week's recital by the Mitchison Ensemble will still be taking place, and we hope you are able to join us for that.
