We are delighted that My Shrewsbury magazine has written this great preview piece about our next concert on Wednesday, November 14th (7.30pm) in the Alington Hall - which features 'Bishop Rock Overture' by Doreen Carwithen. Doreen's niece Jenni will be playing in our viola section and she spoke to My Shrewsbury about her memories of visiting Doreen and her husband William Alwyn (also a famous composer) at their home in Suffolk.
