Dvorak to help repair Necton Church

A concert by Chaos Collective in All Saints Parish Church in Necton next month will raise funds to help weatherproof the church building.

The concert is organised by the Friends of All Saints Necton and will feature the string quartet Chaos Collective whose repertoire will include Dvorak’s string quartet no 12 'American’ and Shostakovich’s string quartet no 8. This is the fourth of six fund-raising concerts at Necton Church over the autumn and winter.
 
The quartet was formed in 2022, and includes violinists Fran Mattishent and Rebecca Scott-Smissen, violist Rachel Stacy and cellist Ivan McCready, who met whilst performing together in a variety of ensembles in East Anglia. The aim of the ensemble is to embrace many different disciplines and encompass many different forms of music, and their programmes have included disparate works including Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Prokofiev, Roger Eno and Susie Self amongst others. They have reworked songs by Queen, film music including James Bond and folk music, giving their programmes an eclectic appeal.  
 
The concert will take place at 3pm on Sunday 11 February at All Saints Church, Necton, PE37 8EH.
Tickets are £10, which includes a refreshment break. They are available From Francesca Shearcroft at fran48@mac.com  phone 01760 722610, or from John Mills at johnmills4@aol.com , phone 01760 788294. Tickets will also be available at the door.
