The sounds of Christmas will ring out at 4 Island churches this festive season thanks to Cowes Concert Band.
The 28-strong brass band will perform a variety of festive music on 4 successive Mondays, starting at Binstead Methodist Church on 26th November at 20:00.
Next up is All Saints’ Church in Gurnard on 3rd December (19:45) followed by East Cowes Methodist Church on 10th December at 20:00.
The final concert will be at Newport Methodist Church on 17th December at 19:45.
Band musical director Andy Norman said:
“The sound of a brass band playing Christmas music has been part of the British tradition since the 19th century. We will play not only carols, but many other Christmas pieces in what will be a varied programme.
“We have been performing at Island churches over the festive period for many years and seem to have built up a good following.”
Admission to all concerts is free, with a retiring collection.
