Nationally acclaimed sax orchestra to play joint fundraising concert in Cottingham

Market Harborough’s Phoenix Saxophone Orchestra is performing a joint fundraising concert at St Mary Magdalene Church in the village of Cottingham, Northamptonshire on Saturday 31 August.

This nationally acclaimed orchestra plays a varied repertoire that ably demonstrates the versatility of the saxophone. From classical music, jazz, swing and big band favourites to modern pop, film and traditional folk songs, there’s something to appeal to all musical tastes.

Nominated for a national award by the Royal Philharmonic Society, Phoenix Saxophone Orchestra features seven different types of saxophone, from the sopranino to the contrabass sax, and makes a truly rousing sound.

Tickets are £12 each (£6 for under 16s), to include a glass of Pimms and nibbles. All profits will be split equally between Phoenix Saxophone Orchestra, which is a registered charity, and the Cottingham Church clock restoration fund, which is raising money to get the church clock working again.

The concert starts at 7.30pm and tickets are available by emailing [email protected], or calling 07594 682671.
