What a wonderfully enjoyable concert our South Devon Choir gave on Saturday in Central Church Torquay!

I’m so proud of the Choir – they worked very hard and made a wonderful sound!

And I’ve never seen the audience look so happy!

We sang a glorious mix of favourite choral classics and Schubert’s Mass in G – conducted by our lovely Musical Director, John Hobbs ,who also stepped cheerfully into the breach and sang the short bass solos gloriously as always.

As for our new accompanist – Tim Matthews- he never stopped playing all night – and all day too if you count the rehearsal time he put in. Those organ solos – wow!  Nearly blew the roof off at times; and lovely to hear the beautiful Steinway played so well.

Onward and upwards everybody – Verdi Requiem next – can’t wait!

From your very delighted Chairperson!
