However well, or not, you know the Messiah, it is always a wonderful sing and this is an opportunity to practice alongside St John Singers for a relaxed and friendly afternoon with time set aside for tea and cake. your guests will be more than welcome to join us for the informal "concert" at the end.
- Music - Watkins Shaw edition - will be provided.
- The Methodist Hall is very comfortable with a fine piano and Andrew Post will accompany us throughout.
- You must register in advance with Steve Abbott at directorstjs@gmail.com giving your NAME and VOICE PART (Soprano, Alto Tenor or Bass) so we know how many to cater for.
