Dear All
Good, solid work last night. And fun too I hope! With our concert fast approaching we will sing through our entire programme next we in, more or less, the provisional order – see below. Time to get your folders sorted. NB: Don’t forget, our practice on Wednesday 5 June will be at St James’ Church and we will be having a final practice in the church on Friday 7 June at 6.00 p.m. (i.e. just before the concert) If you have not already done so, please print the attached poster off, display it somewhere prominent if you can and encourage all your friends and family to come along. It would be great to play to a packed audience.
