SUPPORT LDS
If you enjoy our concerts, you may wish to consider supporting LDS financially. To put on a concert for choir, soloists and orchestra costs from £2,500 to £7,000. Box office takings often do not cover these costs. We also rely on sponsorship, programme advertising and donations to cover the costs of our concerts. Choir member subscriptions and our Friends scheme cover the costs of rehearsals.
The aim of LDS is to achieve a high standard
of musical performance at affordable ticket prices.
We would be enormously grateful if you would consider supporting us in any of the following ways:
Friends of LDS
LDS Friends is an annual scheme running for the duration of our concert year, 1st September - 31st August. There are different levels of support, each entitling you to a number of discounted Friends' tickets to LDS concerts. LDS Friends receive information about the choir’s activities, and receive a mention in concert programmes. Depending on level of support, Business Friends also receive a free quarter-page advert.

|---|---|---|
| Emerald | £20 | 2 discounted tickets |
| Sapphire | £30 | 3 discounted tickets |
| Ruby | £50 | 6 discounted tickets |
| Diamond | £100 | 8 discounted tickets |

Sponsor a Player
LDS are privileged to be accompanied by the Marcel Sinfonia, an orchestra of young professional musicians. Musicians’ fees are £80 per player. Our Sponsor a Player scheme allows you to contribute towards this. You are able to select the instrument you wish your sponsorship to go towards, and will receive a mention in the concert programme. Part-sponsorship is gratefully received. Further details on how to sponsor a player for an upcoming concert can be found on our concert pages.
