Warrington Male Voice Choir
Christmas Concerts at the Parr Hall.
|
18th-19th December 2009
|
After an enjoyable concert
at the Peninsula Barracks, and well received performances at HMP Styal earlier
in December, the choir turned its attention to the pinnacle of its concert
year, the Christmas concerts at the Parr Hall in Warrington. These
Christmas concerts are perennially popular with Parr Hall audiences, and
this year was no exception.
The Choir's guests were,
as last year, Bactiguard Wire Brass, and soloist Claire Ronan. Warrington
Male Voice Choir's younger section, Harmony in Blue also added their own
contribution to the proceedings to send audiences home feeling full of the
festive spirit.
Harmony in Blue
took part in the Macmillan Carol Concert at Chester Cathedral on the 9th
December, 2009. Click the link on the left.
