Dear OBC Supporter,

We are delighted to announce that tickets are now on sale for *Elijah*, the first concert of our new 2009-10 season. We will be joined by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, four superb soloists and conducted by our Principal Conductor Nicholas Cleobury. The concert will take place in the Sheldonian Theatre in Oxford on Saturday 5th December at 19.30 with a pre-concert talk entitled "Did Elijah kill Mendelssohn?", to which all ticket holders are invited.

We will then return to the Sheldonian on Saturday 19th December for our annual carol concert. Under the baton of our Associate Conductor Timothy Byram-Wigfield, *Carols for All* will be a fun programme of seasonal music and the chance to join in some well-known favourites.

For more details of both concerts, please visit http://www.oxfordbachchoir.org/. Tickets are available to purchase from the Oxford Playhouse Box Office (01865 305305) or from mailto:tickets@oxfordbachchoir.org.

We hope you will be able to join us.

The Oxford Bach Choir
