Last night we were welcomed into the
steaming warmth of Oslar Coffee in a slight change to the usual
programme of outside events.
Oslars is a wonderful venue, an
independent coffee shop recently opened it was great to be able to
put a performance on there and support our local independents. The
greatest disadvantage is that there isn't a lot of space outside for
a stage set up and an audience. So it was wonderful to be able to
bring the performance inside. This was also an advantage to the
performer Endre Adam whose beautiful violin would not have been able
to keep it's tune out in the freezing cold outside. As not an
instrumentalist myself I had no idea how much the cold weather
affects instruments.
Endre Adam is a classically trained Hungarian violinist, who has played in various symphony orchestras, both in Hungary and here in the U.K., and currently plays for the Reading University Orchestra. He has a wide-ranging repertoire, from the classics to romantic and popular. Music is his passion!

We were treated to a symphony of
traditional Christmas carols including “Once in Royal Davids City”,
“Away in a Manger”, “It came upon a Midnight Clear” and
ending the evening with a surprise from the fabulous Gillie Tunley
leading the audience in singing the last carol “Silent Night”.
In fact they were so beautiful and
soulful we couldn't resist taking many videos rather than the usual
many photos.
