Legendary actors, Vanessa Redgrave CBE* and Jemma Redgrave*, will take part in our Christmas concert, helping  to raise money for The Children's Trust, the UK’s leading charity for brain injury. The aunt and niece duo are passionate about raising awareness of brain injury after Vanessa’s daughter, Natasha Richardson, sadly died from a brain injury in 2009.

Hosted by BBC Broadcaster and Ambassador of The Children’s Trust, Nicholas Owen, the festive evening will take place on Wednesday 11 December at the Holy Trinity in Guildford. It promises classical Christmas music, readings and much-loved carols and is a night not to be missed!

There will also be musical performances from London Soprano, Joanna McGahon, The University of Surrey String Orchestra and St Catherine’s School Choir. The Epsom Chamber Choir will also deliver a spectacular performance.

The event will celebrate the ways in which a child with brain injury reconnects with the world around them and relearns the skills they've lost through music therapy.

Two pieces central to our programme this year are ‘On Christmas Night’, composed by Robert Chilcott in 2010, which offers some glorious new arrangements of Christmas favourites and Ralph Vaughan Williams' ‘Fantasia on Christmas Carols’. Written in 1912, this single-movement work consists of English folk carols collected in southern England by Vaughan Williams and Cecil Sharp, interposed with brief orchestral quotations from more well-known carols; a rich menu indeed!
We are pleased to be joined by internationally acclaimed accompanists, organist Douglas Tang and cellist Carola Krebs, and between the carols, we are honoured to have the well-known composer Will Todd provide our readings.

This year we are pleased to support the work of the Meath Epilepsy Charity, Godalming
