The Autumn Bridge Chapel Concert has become quite a tradition in Derby and is now now in its 5th year! Kindly organised by Soundbites of Derby the concert aims to create an eclectic mix of music from around the world and from many historical eras with an exciting mixture sounds from some of Derbyshires most unique instrumentalists.

Proceeds always go to a good cause and this year we are raising funds for the homeless charity Crisis. Please click here for a link to the Crisis website.

The first half will feature classical guitar solos and duets from James Rippingale and Jonathan Priestley including music by Telemann and Giuliani.

The second half will feature Scott Marshall on Hurdy Gurdy and Greg Rawson on Djembe. It will be amplified, exciting and probably quite unpredictable with a mixture of Folk and Medieval musical offerings…….
