Their diverse repertoire ranges from Mozart and Rutter to Take That and Snow Patrol with a Good dose of musicals and Disney thrown in for Good measure. The seeds of the Choir were first planted back in mid-2012 when Maddy was asked to set up a choir to perform a small concert at her local church near to Stratford Upon Avon. The choir are all Good friends and met in a variety of ways from other choirs, bands and performing arts groups. Since their first concert, they have grown to become one of the best and most revered choirs in the Midlands and have performed at countless venues from the Birmingham German Christmas Markets to Shakespeare’s Birthday Celebrations in Stratford Upon Avon to their very first concert in Warwick in June 2013. In July 2013, the Coventry Telegraph newspaper referred to them as ...    less

The late year lies down the north. All is healed, all is health. High summer holds the earth. Hearts all whole. Sure on this shining Night I weep for wonder Wandering far alone Of shadows on the stars. 在這星影環繞 閃亮的夜晚， 仁慈必看顧我 在地球的這一端。 北國的歲暮， 萬物皆復甦。 盛夏臨據大地， 我重拾完整的心。 在這閃亮夜晚， 我為奇蹟落淚 獨自漫步 在星影下。  less
