On Sunday 17^th March the Chapel Choir, Chamber Choir and Soloists from within the choirs performed at St Thomas' Church in Wells.

It was a super afternoon, with an enthusiastic and supportive audience. The Chapel Choir performed three pieces within the programme including the 500^th Commissioned Anthem ‘King of Glory, King of Peace’ by Alexander L’Estrange. Interspersed were several vocal solos and duets ranging from Clara and Kiara’s beautiful rendition of Handel’s 'De torrente in Via Bibet' from 'Dixit Dominus' through to Harriet and Katie’s performance of the duet 'The Movie in My Mind' from 'Miss Saigon'. The programme also included instrumental soloists from Mozart’s 'Bassoon Concerto in B Flat Major' to Liszt’s 'Liebestraum' and Bernstein’s 'Rondo for Lifey'. The Chamber Choir performed a light-hearted arrangement of 'Fascinating Rhythm' and Arnesen’s atmospheric work 'Even When He is Silent'.

Congratulations to all involved and particularly to those who performed a solo or duet.

An impressive £420 was raised for the St Thomas' Church Development Fund.
