Our main concert at Hedge End Village Hall proved a winner once again. Both the matinee and evening performances were to a packed hall, bedecked with Christmas lights and decorations to welcome in the festive season.
Well known carols for audience participation, interspersed with a wide range of Christmas music from the choir, filled the hall with festive cheer. ‘Little Drummer Boy’, the haunting ‘Midwinter’ jolly ‘Jingle Bells’ and ‘Christmas Shopping Blues’, were just a small part of what was a varied and extremely well received concert. In addition, the younger members of the audience were treated to a toe tapping dance routine by the ‘DM Dance School’ and a certain gentleman with a red suit, white beard and VERY full sack of presents arrived to start off the Christmas holidays. Rory’s saxaphone ‘set’ was brilliant and the multi-talented Bethany on the trumpet and piano, provided yet more musical magic. We ended the show with the 38th rendition this year of ‘The Most Wonderful Time of the Year’ !
