The Choir took part in a concert at St Thomas' Church, Gawber at the end of their Church Festival. The choir were accompanied by guest artists Lynne Bradbury and her daughter Kathryn..

The choir began the concert by singing Verdi's "Bandits' Chorus" followed by 3 more pieces from the current repertoire. Lynne and Kathryn then sang 6 pieces between them, beginning and ending with a duet, with 2 solo items by each of them in between. The Choir then completed the first half by singing 4 more pieces, ending with R W Atkinson's "Mulligan Musketeers".

After the interval, the Choir began the second half of the concert with Handel's "Sound and Alarm!" followed by 3 further pieces from the current repertoire. Lynne and Kathryn then sand 6 more pieces following the same format as the first half (2 duets, 4 solo pieces (2 each), and a duet to finish). The choir then completed the concert with "A medley from Les Miserables". We all then retired to the hall for refreshments.

With that, the choir concert programme ends until October. Now the hard work begins learning new pieces for the Royal Albert Hall concert next year.
