Come prepared to show proof of vaccination (a photo on your phone will do the trick) and wearing a mask.
We will set out a maximum of 49 chairs spread out at appropriate distance so we are all comfortable and confident of our health safety.
As much as we have enjoyed our intermissions over these many years – getting to know each other and the musicians – we will not take an intermission and will not serve coffee. Let’s play it safe so that we can enjoy this and many more live performances!
A video of the performance will be available later on the Classical Tuesdays YouTube and Facebook channels.
