This year’s performance took place in the ruined Benedictine Priory of St Mary’s Binham, where the Schola Cantorum Chamber Choir, Senior School musicians, and professional orchestral players performed a top-tier classical programme. The repertoire included Fauré’s Requiem and selected arias from Mozart’s The Marriage of Figaro.

As Storm Claudia raged outside, knocking out the village’s power, the performers found themselves in complete darkness. But the Gresham’s spirit of resilience shone through, and the concert went on by torchlight. The show must go on – and it did, impressively. Well done to all!
