It’s been a long search with both Covid-19 and bad luck adding to the challenge but we eventually found a worthy replacement for Anna. Will ran his first official rehearsal this evening and we all went away with a renewed enthusiasm for singing and feeling like we’d improved in the space of just a few…

We returned to our normal rehearsal venue as government Covid-19 restrictions were lifted.  It’s been a difficult 16 months during which we’ve had a lot of remote rehearsals and more recently, outside rehearsals in what could charitably be described as less than ideal conditions. It’s a relief to be back as a fully vaccinated chorus in…

Fortunately for him, this crossing has been planned for a while and involves the river Severn rather than the Styx. Mike has been…

The visit to sing for the residents of Beaumont has almost become an annual event; with the chorus being invited back time after time. So it was that a small group of us were given our usual warm greeting (in every sense) by the staff and residents as we performed a half hour set. The…
