Alderley Edge Methodist Church's lunchtime concerts will return for the 11th season next month.
The concerts will re-commence after the summer break on Wednesday 17th September with a performance by students from Chetham's School of Music, Manchester.
The following month, on Wednesday 15th October, they will celebrate their 10th anniversary with another concert performed by students from Chetham's School of Music.
Jean Walker said "The first lunchtime concert took place on 13th October 2004, when we enjoyed an organ recital by two young musicians from Chethams, James Norrey and Peter Stevens.
"It is always a privilege to see and hear such talented young musicians, often poised to pursue eminent careers. Ten years on, James Norrey is now Assistant Director of Music at Newcastle Cathedral, and Director of Campus Music at Northumbria University, whilst Peter Stevens is Assistant Master of Music at Westminster Cathedral."
Average attendance at the concerts is in excess of one hundred and since the concerts began in October 2004 organisers have donated over £21,000 to deserving charitable organisations.
Proceeds from the 2013-2014 concerts have enabled Alderley Edge Methodist Church to make donations to local charities, such as Cre8Macclesfield, Lauren Wild and the Teenage Cancer Trust, Wilmslow Wells for Africa and The Christie, as well as to international charities such as Mary's Meals and The Philippines Appeal.
Jean added "We look forward to another successful season for 2014-15."
The concert will commence at 1pm. Admission is by programme at the door, priced £4.00, with light lunches available from 12 noon. Further information is available on 01625 584410 or 01625 584367.
Lunchtime Concerts will then be held on the third Wednesday of each month, with a variety of instrumentalists scheduled to perform this season.
Details of each concert will be included in our events calendar.
