In 2009, Connaught Opera performed a community concert in the glorious setting of the Jacobean Banqueting Hall at Knebworth House. The Knebworth Education and Preservation Trust and the Lytton Cobbold family, were pleased to once again offer their home, free of charge , to the older community for this enjoyable and worthwhile event. The concert attracted residents from day centres and care homes around Hertfordshire and was sponsored by Quantum Care and Hertfordshire County Council. Piano provided by Cambridge Music.
"Just a little thank you for such a lovely concert . Our service users and staff really enjoyed it and chatted about it all the way home. It was such a well presented and well thought out production and it was a privilege to be invited, we look forward to being invited next year .We thought it would be it would be a little music in the afternoon ,but it was so much more .
Please pass our praise on to all the people involved."
