So it’s not “all work and no play” for the New Music Makers. On Saturday 7th October we had a Beetle Drive/Quiz attended by 40 people made up of choir members, as well as friends and family. There were manic rounds of dice rolling to build the 14 part beetle and the cheers of relief when a six was thrown for the body, were very noticeable. The children who came joined in with enthusiasm and there were some very artistic/creative drawings of beetles. The frantic part was interspersed with quiet, gentle rounds of questions which did tax the brains a bit. The fish and chips arrived in the nick of time and overall the evening was very enjoyable. |

A sunny day in Southampton greeted us as we arrived to put on our concert party for the Marks and Spencer Retirement Fund. Despite Roy and Pete being ill, the bases were more than competently covered by Eric Gerrey who sang his heart out. Pat delivered some wonderful solos, kindly singing an extra one to cover for Roy’s absence. The audience were most appreciative and enjoyed songs such as Can You Feel the Love Tonight?, Bring Him Home, Feed the Birds, Hallelujah, and One, to name but a few. Chris did an amazing job, not only playing the piano, but conducting and mouthing the words – all at the same time – a real one man band! Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the venue, the wonderful audience, not to mention the tea, cakes, chocolate bars and biscuits. Who could ask for more? |

Wow what a Concert. It all went off really well. The soloists were amazing. The Choir sang their hearts out Chris Allison on the piano kept us all together, with his lovely daughter Martha turning pages and keeping him in order. Our front of house team kept the audience in order we didn’t lose any, thanks for your help people. David despite being left in “the darkness my old friend” he soldiered on through the Simon and Garfunkel Medley masterfully. And Lillian Sediles our new musical director kept us on our toes with her brilliant direction. Not only that she sang with the Choir and played a beautiful violin duet with Chris Allison. Thanks everyone who came you did brilliantly when you joined in with Mary Poppins I hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.

We were thrilled and honoured that our friend and pianist Matt Lemon asked us to sing on his special day on Saturday at his Wedding in Eastleigh. Matt has been playing the piano for us for many years and we were pleased to be able to join him and Molly to help celebrate this lovely occasion. We wish Matt and Molly all the best for their future. |
