Remembrance Day concert Memorial Buildings to host commemoration
BRISTOL Chamber Choir will be presenting a Remembrance Day concert at 5pm on Sunday 11 November. The event will take place at The Chapel, St Monica Trust, Cote Lane, Bristol, BS9 3UN. Admission is free but there will be a retiring collection to raise funds for the Trust and the Choir. On this special anniversary year the concert will also commemorate the end of the First World War. The choir will be singing music by Ralph Vaughan Williams, William Harris, Edward Naylor, Carl Orff and two composers with Bristol connections. Cyril Rootham (1875 – 1938) was born in Bristol and his work at Cambridge University made him an influential figure
in English music life. His setting of Siegfried Sassoon’s poem ‘Everyone Sang’ will be performed by the choir. Raymond Warren (1928 - ) was Professor of Music at Bristol University from 1972 - 1994. He is the President of Bristol Chamber Choir and they will be singing his setting of ‘St Patrick’s Breastplate’. For more information visit www.bristolchamberchoir.org.uk
HORFIELD Baptist Church will be commemorating this month's centenary of the ending of World War One at its own Memorial Buildings. The church's Memorial Buildings are next to the main church building facing Gloucester Road and incorporate the church's Fresh Ground Café. They were built in memory of those who served and the 39 men from the church who were killed in the First World War. The names of the fallen are recorded on a stone at the front of the buildings which were opened on 1922. The church is putting up a remembrance silhouette inside its Fresh Ground Café and adding 39 poppies to represent the church members who died. Further information and stories
about some of those church members will also be added. From November 5 everyone in the Bishopston area is invited to visit during café opening hours and purchase a British Legion poppy. This poppy can then be added to the silhouette in memory of someone lost in war from their own family, along with a name and other details if they wish. On Sunday 11 November Horfield Baptist's Remembrance Service will start at 10.30am outside the Memorial Buildings and continue inside the church after the two minute silence at 11am. All are very welcome to attend the service or observe the silence for this centenary Remembrance. For more information email office@horfieldbaptist.net
