May 14th 2011 - Weybridge Male Voice Choir and Treble Clef
Ladies' Choir joined forces in a concert in aid of the Beau
Brown Fund. Beau is a local five-year old boy who has
cerebral palsy and who is travelling to the USA for a
life-changing operation.
A capacity audience,
including the Mayor and Mayoress of Elmbridge, were
entertained at the Catholic Church of Christ, Prince of
Peace, Weybridge with a selection of items from each of the
choirs' repertoire plus seven joint numbers. These included
a dramatic arrangement of '1492' by Vangelis, for which the
two choirs were joined by members of the Weyward Singers.
Guest artist was popular mezzo soprano Liz Westaway.
Beau's grandmother spoke to the audience about Beau and his
operation. Net proceeds from ticket sales plus the contents
of a bucket collection (a generous £873), together totalled
£4,250 .
Audience comment:
"... both Choirs were
absolutely magnificent and we thoroughly enjoyed them. It
set a standard for our little town that many would not
believe existed."
"The concert on 14th May was
fantastic - as always!"
"Thank you so much for a
fantastic concert . . "
"...a wonderful evening, lovely
atmosphere - I so enjoyed every minute!" |
