A MUSIC group is heralding the coming of the festive season with a concert next week.
Sowerby Music is hosting a performance by the Beningborough Singers in St Oswald's Church, Sowerby, next Saturday, at 7.30pm.
It is their third visit to Sowerby Music in six years, an accolade rarely offered by the society.
Under the direction of David Howard they will present Christmas is coming yet again.
Formed in 1985, the dozen- strong Beningborough Singers draw their members by invitation from across Yorkshire.
They are led by Mr Howard, professor of music technology at York University, who is also a deputy tenor songman in the York Minster Choir.
Their seasonal programme of music, readings and audience participation is laced with humour.
The music ranges from the 14th Century to arrangements especially for the concert - from Handel's Joy to the World to Irving Berlin's White Christmas.
Tickets are £7 from White Rose Books or Hambleton Books, in Thirsk, or £8 at the door. Accompanied children are admitted free.
