WOW! What an evening!
If you didn't get to the concert then you missed a very good evening. Thurlestone did us proud with a responsive, participating audience and they went home singing! The Choir, under the excellent leadership of Christopher Fletcher, sang a number of Christmas songs and carols with the audience joining in on the community singing. And all this with mince pies and mulled wine!
The programme comprised:
- Past Three a Clock
- In The Bleak Mid Winter with the solos sung by Moira Greening and Peter Bolt
- O Holy Night - the solo by the principal Tenor, Charles Westlake
- Mary Had a Baby
- Lullay [Karl Jenkins]
- Go Tell it to the Mountain [KJ]
- Nativity Carol [John Rutter]
- Sans day Carol [JR]
- A Merry Christmas
There were solo performances by Brian Nice, Hilary Jarret, Bruce Dunkley Tom Gilkes and John Montague.
Some splendid readings by Ann Sylge, Elizabeth Jones & May Crimp
We are most grateful to the choristers who prepared the refreshments, and those others who helped in the setting up and putting away chairs, etc..
