A SUMMER concert will feature music from the composer of The Snowman.
The Reading Haydn Choir will be performing in Tilehurst Methodist Church on Saturday, July 1.
Called Summer Cocktails, organisers are promising a mixture of traditional and lesser-heard folk songs, as well as some jazzy 20th-century pieces from the likes of Cole Porter and George Gershwin.
The programme will also include a cantata by Howard Blake, The Song of St Francis. In this, the composer of The Snowman took early Italian words and turned it into a four-part chorus.
Joining the choir will be trombonist Sue Addison.
The event starts at 7.30pm at the School Road church. Tickets cost £15, £13 for concessions and £5 for under 19s, with a £1 discount for adult tickets bought in advance.
