The sound will be crisp but the response will be anything but frosty when a church near Petersfield holds a seasonal concert this weekend.

Classical fans are set for a treat as A Winter’s Journey: English Song Recital will take place in St Mary’s Buriton this Sunday afternoon (February 23).

Pianist Tom Cooper and mezzo-soprano Penny Pettifor will perform Songs of Travel by Vaughan Williams from 2.30pm.

Churchgoers can also expect a selection of On This Island ditties from Benjamin Britten at the free concert with retiring collection.

All proceeds going to St Mary’s Buriton, light refreshments will be served after the concert.
