Wherwell Singers 10th Anniversary Concert Programme
Wherwell Singers 10th Anniversary Concert Programme, 17th June 2017.
It’s been a busy ten years. We have sung some of the choral staple works: Britten’s Ceremony of Carols, Faure’s Requiem, Handel’s Messiah, Mozart’s Missa Solmenis and Vespers, Vivaldi’s Gloria. We have also enjoyed exploring the works of contemporary composers including Esenvalds, Lauridsen, Lukaszewski, Macmillan, Whitacre and of course Will Todd. During this time, we have had the steadfast support of our friends, family and neighbours, and Revd. Jax Machin and Wherwell Church PCC who kindly allow us to rehearse each week in the church. We have also been blessed with some amazing accompanists – a special thanks to David Wright, Bill Bowley, Liam Cartwright, Jonathan Hope, Tim Parsons and Andrew Hayman.
Holding tonight’s concert, and commissioning a new work, is an expensive undertaking. This would not have been possible without the very generous sponsorship of our 50 Platinum and Gold Sponsors. Thank you, thank you, thank you! A huge thank you to our kindred spirits in King Alfred Singers, the Elizabethan Madrigal Singers and Vocalium for helping to make tonight’s concert so special. Most of all, I want to thank the Wherwell Singers. You’re amazing, and so passionate and hard working. And we have had so much fun! Who could forget Vai France dancing around the church as we sang Tequila Samba, or the choir dressing up in cowboy outfits for the Cowboy Carol?! It continues to be an immense privilege – thank you.
