We started off the summer with the idea of holding a Midsummer Medley concert in July at Fullbrook School. This was all organised to be an evening cafe style concert with drinks and nibbles, but unfortunately the tickets just didn’t sell! We think everyone was feeling the cost of living pinch! So we ended up having a last minute open rehearsal at our last summer evening meeting, inviting friends and family, for free, to come and listen to us. We were overwhelmed by the number that came and the lovely feedback and as it was such a successful and enjoyable event we are going to repeat it in the future. Thank you to everyone who supported us! Next time we will organise drinks and a donations bucket for charity!!
Saying Goodbye!
Very sadly in January 2023 we had to say goodbye to our dear choir member and friend, Carol, who sadly passed away. We gave her a lovely send off by singing her favourite choir songs - Vicar of Dibley version of “ The Lord is my Shepherd” and “Somewhere” from West Side Story at her funeral. Carol always giggled when we sang “The Lord is my Shepherd” because it reminded her of the Vicar of Dibley episode when Dawn French falls into an enormous puddle.
We also helped our Choir Master, Andrew, say goodbye to his beloved mother in 2023 by singing for her at her funeral.
