We are delighted to once again be holding our Autumn Concert in the impressive St James’s Church, Piccadilly. The church, which dates back to 1676, was designed by highly acclaimed British Architect Sir Christopher Wren. Wren’s aim for the church was to enable the largest number of people to hear the service and see the preacher. The acoustic qualities of the church have been consistently celebrated with the church hosting music greats across the ages from Haydn to Adele.
The concert’s music director is once again former BritishSpanish Society scholarship winner Nicole Crespo O’Donoghue.
