Find out who's performing in church's lunchtime concerts in June
A series of concerts will continue at a spectacular Shrewsbury church next month.
The free-to-attend lunchtime concerts will take place at St Chad's Church every Friday in June, starting at 12.30pm.
Concerts in the Round is one of the biggest concerts series in the country. There will be singing, guitar music, and organ recitals.
On June 7, Ukrainian guitarist Galina Vale will present her annual St Chad’s recital.
Concert director Richard Walker said: "Galina has a charismatic stage presence and has an unusually wide ranging and technically demanding repertoire including classical, flamenco, and arrangements of Latin American and East European folk music."
Organist of Chester Cathedral, Philip Rushforth, will perform a recital on June 14 before pianist Julian Hellaby will play for the first ever time at St Chad's the following week.
Mr Walker describes the church's organ as: "One of the best organs for miles around."
Adding: "Organists at the top of their profession are always pleased to come and play it.
"Julian has performed in Europe, Africa and Asia both as solo pianist and as a concerto soloist and we are delighted to have persuaded him to come to St Chad’s."
Pupils from Shrewsbury High School will conclude June's concerts at the church on June 28, performing solos and ensembles.
