The time is fast approaching for our annual performances. After an enforced absence of three years (at least as far as summer concerts are concerned) we are very happy to be back to performing live concerts and are rehearsing hard, eager to entertain audiences once again.
As ever, we have chosen some challenging, new and familiar pieces to entertain you with. Hopefully you will recognise a few tunes and be identifying musical favourites from the medleys. With items ranging from pop to opera there is bound to be something for everyone. This year we have also chosen to recognise the Platinum Jubilee by adding a few patriotic pieces and the National anthem to the programme, so if you want to come along and wave a flag with us, you’d be most welcome.
The first performance will be at the Baptist Church in Seaford on 11th June, followed by the second on 18th June at St Saviour’s, South Street, Eastbourne. Both performances start at 7.00pm.
