Lord Petre coming to Byrd matinee

We are delighted that John, the 18th Baron Petre of Ingatestone will be coming to the 4pm performance of 'William Byrd: His Essex Years' at St Peter & St Paul Church on Saturday 7 May.

The Petre family are synonymous with William Byrd, the Catholic composer and musician. William Petre was Byrd's patron.

'William Byrd: His Essex Years' will be a recital given by the Stondon Singers (under their conductor Christopher Tinker) with Richard Turbet, our special guest and Byrd expert, providing a narrative to the life and times of the musician in and around Stondon Massey.

Tickets for the event cost £12.50.
