Here's this week's offering for Afternoon Tea: Bryony Burnham and David Woods singing "Ah, Leave Me Not To Pine Alone" from The Pirates of Penzance. Bryony and David recorded this for us at their home in Harrogate.
Bryony and David have appeared in several SACO productions and concerts over the last few years. Both sang in the Gilbert and Sullivan concerts last year, and most recently, Bryony played Orlovsky in Die Fledermaus, David was Harry Benn in The Boatswain's Mate last autumn.
Look out for more virtual concerts weekly.

GET TO KNOW US
Welcome to St Albans Chamber Opera's 32nd season.
SACO was founded in 1987 by opera singer Phyl Swindlehurst and music director David Ireson to provide performing opportunities for the many talented singers living in and around St Albans, Hertfordshire, and to involve young people in performing and attending opera.
The company has a good reputation for providing first class music theatre on a small budget and is virtually self-supporting.
An annual production at the Abbey Theatre in the Spring is supplemented with studio performances, concerts and workshops in a variety of unusual and attractive venues.
SUPPORT US
SACO relies on the generosity of our supporters. There are two main ways in which you can show your support:
When you shop online, you can raise funds for SACO from your favourite online shops by shopping via The Giving Machine who will donate a small percentage of the amount you spend to SACO. It does not cost you anything, but every penny we raise helps us with our next production.

SACO also has an active group of Friends and Patrons who, through a monthly donation, make a valuable contribution to the company. If you are a UK taxpayer, your donation may also be gift-aided, which helps even more.
In return, you will be the first to hear about our events, and receive a discount voucher for our Spring production.
