🎶 eXTC 'This Is Pop' Greatest Hits Tour 2026 - Esquires, Bedford


Time: 19:00

🎶 XTC's legendary drummer, Terry Chambers, is back on the road with his band EXTC (named and approved by XTC frontman, Andy Partridge).

Emerging out of the post-punk and new-wave explosion of the late 70s, XTC experienced global success touring with the likes of The Police and Talking Heads. Sadly, their legions of loyal fans would be left in limbo when in 1982 XTC stopped touring, becoming a studio-based entity.

EXTC were formed in 2019 by XTC's drummer Terry Chambers, performing classic XTC material such as Making Plans For Nigel, Senses Working Overtime, Mayor of Simpleton, Generals and Majors, Sgt. Rock (Is Going To Help Me), Love on a Farmboy's Wages and many more.

An AGMP Concerts presentation.

ℹ️ ABOUT
Don't miss this incredible opportunity to hear the music of XTC played live by the man who helped create their unique sound. Whether you were there during the new-wave explosion or discovered their studio mastery later, this is a night for true music fans in Bedfordshire.

🎼 Come and Sing Karl Jenkins Requiem - Aspley Guise Village Hall


Time: 09:30 - 16:00

🎼 From Mozart to Verdi and Faure to Berlioz, an illustrious list of composers have all triumphed with their moving, exquisite and often gargantuan requiems. So what make this one different?

ℹ️ ABOUT
Jenkins has set the usual Latin movements of the requiem mass, but, in keeping with his usual trait of drawing from other cultures, he has also set five Japanese haiku ’death’ poems. Such poems are usually to do with nature, have a single idea, and consist of seventeen syllables divided 5-7-5 over three lines. These describe the Japanese view of nature’s water cycle (precipitation) being synonymous with life.

The Western and Eastern texts are combined in two of the haiku movements, Having Seen the Moon and Farewell, which incorporate the Benedictus and the Agnus Dei respectively.
In the full production, both are intoned by male voices in a monastic style as counterpoint to the Japanese text sung by females. The instrumentation of these haiku settings includes the ancient Japanese wind instrument, the shakuhachi. Elsewhere, as usual, Jenkins has used someethnic drums (e.g. Arabic darabuca, Japanese daiko, frame drums) and even hip-hop rhythm in the Dies Irae.

✨️ WHAT TO EXPECT
Led by our esteemed conductor, Ian Smith, join Danesborough Chorus members for a fun day singing the chorus parts of this ever-popular work. We will be accompanied by Tim Grant-Jones.

☕️ REFRESHMENTS
Tea, coffee and cake provided; bring your own packed lunch.

🎟 TICKET COST:
Tickets are £20 (students £5), including score hire. You can purchase tickets via the event link.
