A CHOIR FOR PEACE
Barrie Johnson
Chairman, Warrington Male Voice Choir
“The Choir, over the past years, have worked tirelessly to conduct concerts in Ireland, in different venues, in prisons …. and, through the language of music, through the Arts, they have brought people together from different backgrounds. They have made, in a significant way, a contribution towards the peace that we are beginning now to see in that troubled part of the world.
It has been a long process and there is still a way to go; but mercifully we begin to see results ….”
TERRY WAITE CBE, July 2005
