The Grange Opera 2025 – Summertime Swing
This year Grange Festival welcomes one of Europe’s top big bands, the Jazz Orchestra of the Concertgebouw. Together with Dutch jazz superstar Fay Claassen they will perform hits from the Great American Songbook. This golden age of music (1920–1950) was shaped by composers like Irving Berlin, George Gershwin, Cole Porter and Jerome Kern and their impressive collection of classics which have truly stood the test of time. Guaranteed to get your toes tapping and your hearts singing. Artists: Fay Claassen The Jazz Orchestra of the Concertgebouw We have been offered 20 seats for this performance so please book early to avoid disappointment. Please RSVP to Clive Parritt on clive@parritt.com or Clare Ferrar on clareferrar@accountantslivery.org if you wish to attend.
Annual Banquet
Mansion House Walbrook, London, United KingdomThis event is always the highpoint of our Livery's annual social round, and this year should be no exception. Our guests for the evening will include the Lord Mayor and Lady Mayoress, plus at least one Sheriff(!), and there should be some unusual entertainment too. Our external speaker is Harry Herbert, who is the son of our late Queen's racing manager, and himself the UK's leading manager of racing syndicates. He has lots of interesting tales to tell, and happily for us, only a limited sense of discretion! So coming along and bring your family and friends to enjoy a spectacular evening out, with all the trimmings and some great entertainment. Dress is black or white tie, or Livery uniform, and by dint of some hard negotiating with the powers that be, it has been possible to reduce the price this year to £165 per person.
