An Evening of Clairvoyance with David Holt

- Category: Heywood Civic Centre
Friday 13 September 2013
One of the UK's leading Spirit Mediums returns to Heywood Civic after his very successful show last year.
"There is no death, just life beyond this"
"As a medium it is my purpose to show beyond all doubt that the human soul continues to live after physical death and that the separation we feel when a loved one dies is only temporary.
The character and personality that made your loved ones who they were in life is still very much alive and well in the world of spirit. One day when we make this inevitable journey ourselves, they will be there to greet you." David Holt
Join David for an evening with a difference as he passes on messages from the other side and delivers mind blowing evidence of life after death.
"An emotional and fascinating experience"
Tickets £12 from www.spiritsurvival.com/apps/webstore/
Doors: 7.30pm, starts 8pm

Moonlight Serenade Orchestra UK present The Sounds of Glenn Miller & The Big Band Era
Founded by trumpeter Kevin Cunningham, the Moonlight Serenade Orchestra UK has wowed audiences in Concert Halls and Theatres all over Great Britain. Known for its mix of Big Band Swing teamed with outstanding vocals, the Orchestra's repertoire ranges from the classics of Glenn Miller through Count Basie, Tommy Dorsey and Benny Goodman to the cool vibe of Sinatra with a touch of Gene Krupa thrown in.
Our musicians have credits ranging from 1920's traditional jazz, BBC Big Band, Jazz Funk and West End shows behind them.
In Concert, in addition to Big Band numbers, there are solos spots from a number of our top notch musicians and fabulous renditions from our Star vocalists.
From playing under the wing of a Bomber at the American Air Museum to selling out their appearance at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, the MSO UK always hits the right notes.

The Moonlight Serenade Orchestra UK's musicians happily state that they are the hardest swinging band in the UK but don't take our word for it, come and see for yourselves!
