RNLIWe had an enjoyable time at the RNLI on 21 August, doing what we love best, singing to raise funds for this essential charity.
As usual, we were very well looked after by the RNLI volunteers, with tea and cake and savouries, so we did sing for our supper! |
Spring and summer newsThe warm summer weather has seen the Choir out and about in several different places. In May, seven singers travelled to the Royal Albert Hall to join The Really Big Chorus in a performance of The Armed Man, A Mass for Peace, by the composer Karl Jenkins. To sing with such a chorus of 1,500 singers, with the accompaniment of the English Festival Orchestra, at such a prestigious venue was an amazing experience.
Closer to home the choir sang at the Polperro festival and future events include a concert at St Petroc’s Church, Bodmin, the Riverside Sunday Service on July 29th and the RNLI on August 21st with guests Saxequality. The choir has a varied repertoire with music from Mozart to Motown and new singers are always welcome.
