Thank you to everyone who came to our summer concert at St. Lawrence's Church where £190 was raised for the Churches Conservation Trust. Special thanks to Jim Jarvis and the other volunteers who keep the church open so that this historic building can be enjoyed by all.

Our summer of song continues on Sunday, July 29 when Musyck Anon will be performing at Berkeley Castle, Gloucestershire. We will be singing in the Great Hall and in the magnificent grounds from 2pm onwards. This is part of a Tudor spectacular that will include the arrival of Henry VIII and his retinue, Tudor dancing and falconry displays.

In 1992, Musyck Anon went to Stratford upon Avon and busked in aid of Bloodwise (then known as Leukaemia and Lymphoma Research). This became an annual tradition and since then we have raised over £5000 for the charity. This year's busking will be on Saturday, August 4 in the Centenary Gardens, Stratford, close to the Dirty Duck Pub, from 11am-3pm. Please come along and support this worthwhile charity.
