THE choir is busy polishing Mendelsson’s magnificent Elijah choruses, singing with fury and fire but also with tenderness and joy, all necessary for this roller-coaster of an Old Testament biblical epic.

Tickets are a steal at £15 bought in advance (£18 on the door) available at www.ticketsource.co.uk/harlowchorus (no booking fee).

There are still places available on the coaches travelling from Bishop’s Stortford (contact [email protected] or 01279 411815) and Hertford (contact Foster@sky-com or 01992 462528) picking up at various points along the way.

If you’re driving, directions and google maps are directly accessible by inputting Church of St Peter and St Paul Chingford into your browser.

Make a date with them for Mendelsson’s Elijah, Saturday April 27th at 7.30pm – you won’t be disappointed.
