Oh what a night our performance turned out to be.  We knew it would be good, but it just blossomed into something quite amazing. We had some fantastic feedback from the audience and our young soloists were wonderful and they had a great experience working with Lynton Atkinson.  Here are some pictures (thank you Nigel Apperley) from the evening.   If you came along, we hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.
