Free concerts for young people
Post a Reply to this topic.
Hallo everyone - I just thought I would mention that the English Classical Players are putting on a new season of concerts at the Colosseum, and as well as having some top names lined up they are offering free tickets for students and unwaged persons under 25, all sponsored by John Lewis (good for them)!
Those of us who are rather more chronologically-challenged can make use of the early-booking discounts.
That sounds like a jolly good deal to me. Any other good music offers around?
One more thing -- The English Classical Players are an orchestra. Sorry to point out the obvious to most of you but I met one person who thought they were a cricket team!
The concerts start in September.

Hallo again, I have just received a message from the WatfordConcerts people. As well as the free tickets already mentioned, there is a SuperSaver Half Price offer for the rest of us!
"Despite the great sales success we still have some seats left and every unsold seat is a wasted musical opportunity. We want to share every concert with as many people as possible so we are making a special offer for online sales to anyone reading this news update: tickets for the remaining concerts at the supersaver price of just £10.00 or all three for £20.00.

You are welcome to send details of this offer to anyone who might enjoy our concerts."
There is a booking fee of £2.00 per order.
