What a fabulous evening we had in Silkstone on Sat 13th July. We enjoyed a fantastic variety of songs and pieces performed by not just us, but our guests the V&A Choral Ensemble and our visiting soloist Bodgan Pyasta. A packed church, and a full program. Huge thanks to the organisers, the refreshments team, our choir soloists and both our very talented accompanists, Philip Sutcliffe and Elliott Walker. It was a fantastic treat to sing both Cwm Rhonda and Albert Hay Malotte’s Lord’s Prayer with the backing of the very powerful 3 manual Viscount organ. Hugely thankful to Elliott for joining us in those.
The emotional joint item, Harbour, left both the choirs and audience in tears – such a powerful piece with a 1st verse performed in a capella Ukranian by Bogdan.
We’re looking forward to our return visit, joining the V&A in Derbyshire on June 14th next year ❤️🎶
