A CLASSICALLY trained harpist is hosting two recitals.

The programme contains music from the Baroque era, traditional Irish and Welsh songs, classical adaptations for the pedal harps and sonatas composed especially for the instrument.

The concerts are at All Saints’ Church, in Church Lane, Great Holland, this Saturday, and Frinton Free Church, in Connaught Avenue, Frinton, on November 1.

Both start at 7pm with tickets priced £10, including refreshments. To book, call 01255 8139096 or e-mail harpist.robertson@yahoo.co.uk.
