A CANDLELIT concert takes place in Shimpling church on Saturday, September 12, giving music lovers the chance to see the Peter Creswell Concert Party.

The musical programme includes all kinds of pieces for harp, viola, flute, clarinet, piano and songs both light and classical. Before the concert, which starts at 8pm, there will be a chance to have a picnic in the grounds of St George's Church from 5.30pm.

It is a ticket only event and is jointly organised by Burston and Shimpling Parish Council in co-operation with The Churches Conservation Trust.
