About the concert

To celebrate 25 years of our choir, we were joined on 15 June 2019 by several former members, some of whom travelled from afar (even New Zealand!) to make a huge sound in Parry’s I Was Glad and other items. Here are some audience quotes:

“… a glorious concert… it was sublime…looking forward to the next one…”“…what a concert! The choir sounded great…such a lovely programme with so many of my favourites…”
