Dec. 10th Homecoming Concert

On November 30, 2023   /   PAF News  

Anne Davison will be coming home as part of an album release tour.  Her brand new holiday release with James Hill (of neighbouring Langley!) is titled “The Midnight Clear” and features reimagined carols as well as their own original winter-themed songs.  This tour takes them coast-to-coast, culminating in three shows with the Okanagan Symphony!

Their local concert will be Sunday, Dec. 10 at 3:30pm at the Peninsula United Church and will have a pre-concert carol jam session (all levels and all instruments) as a fun way to kick things off!  Anne will be playing cello and singing, James will play ukulele/violin and singing, and we will be accompanied by a local string quartet, headed by Harold Birston (also including Marie-Claude Brunet who is a mainstay in the classical performances in South Surrey).
