https://www.rainbows.co.uk/get-involved/events/rainbows-derby-christmas-concert this concert did sell out last year, so please buy your tickets quickly to avoid disappointment.
It is going to be a truly wonderful festive concert, which also includes a brilliant combined primary school choir, KTCo Musical Theatre performances and Rock Choir. Every player in the orchestra is crucial so please do let Bex know rebecca.maiden@derbyshire.gov.uk if for some reason a player is not able to attend.
Let’s get Christmas off to a cracking start on the 25th November.
