MazeMusic at St Mary's Church, Saffron Walden, on 3 March 2012 at 7.30p.m. A concert to celebrate the Cultural Olympiad with Britten Sinfonia and three local choirs - Saffron Walden Choral Society, The Granta Chorale and SignuptoSing under the baton of Janet Wheeler, who is also composing a cantata especially for the occasion.
To celebrate Saffron Walden's unique maze culture and explore man's fascination with mazes and labyrinths over the centuries, Saffron Walden held its first Maze Festival in August 2011.
The festival was a great success, with new mazes and maze challenges created throughout the town and a wide array of events and entertainment for people, of all ages and interests. Thank you to every one who took part, especially to the volunteers and organisations who helped make all the events happen. We are looking forward to the next Maze Festival, which we hope will run in 2013.
