Saturday 28th April, 2018 at 7.45pm
Our Spring 2018 concert took place in our usual venue, the Methodist Church in Dunstable.
Steve conducted an exciting mix of music based on the general theme of music from TV and cinema. We were delighted to welcome back as our guests the Linsdale Singers under their conductor Dennis Pim who also played violin in the Orchestra. The Singers presented a mix of secular music including settings of Shakespeare’s words by George Shearing, folksong arrangements and songs from Andrew Lloyd Webber musicals.
Tickets were £7 (concessions £5) and were available at the door.
