new flyer

a week ago the box office opened for the Tallis Scholars' performance in Lichfield in December, and sales are thrumming along nicely, even though the new flyer for the show has only just been signed off. The last time Lichfield Festival tried promoting a December event was 2003, which was a 'Carols by Candlelight' concert without any candles. This time, we are in a first time co-production with the Cathedral, and while everything is being administered and organised through the Festival, risks, and hopefully profits, will be shared.
In the lead up to this performance, there will be a Staffordshire-wide school competition to compose a new Christmas carol. The winner will have their piece performed by the Tallis Scholars at this concert. The competition judges will be me, the cathedral's Precentor Wealands Bell and Peter Philips, the Director of the Tallis Scholars.
The new flyer should land over coming weeks, so keep your eyes peeled and let me know if you find one...
