Summer Concert

Last Saturday evening, Wendover Choral Society performed Mozart's Requiem. They were accompanied by the City of Rochester Symphony Orchestra who began the evening with Tchaikovsky's 4th Symphony.

Alison's sister Anne came all the way from Marple in Cheshire to attend the concert, and stayed with us for two nights over the weekend. Also with us in the audience were Alison's running friend Heather and Angie next door with her daughter Charlotte. We were treated to an exceptional concert. The 46 members of the Choral Society are directed and conducted by Peter Bassano. He also conducts the 50 strong City of Rochester Symphony Orchestra.

The four young soloists are professional performers as well as studying at various academies. I have to say that they were outshone by the choir. During the interval we were able to buy a drink and enjoy it outside on what was probably the warmest evening of the year so far. All in all, a memorable occasion.
