The Choral Society has a 100 year history of music in the area and regularly puts on concerts in BFPC. The choir performed five concerts in 03/04. The works performed included Haydn Te Deum, Poulenc Gloria, The Messiah, Allegri Miserere, Faure Requiem and Elgar The Dream of Gerontius. The programme for 04/05 comprised Handel Pueri Dominum, Rutter Magnificat, The Messiah again, Mozart Requiem and Verdi Requiem. An astonishing quantity and selection of music for a local amateur choir. The Society began, in 2006, to plan to maintain the standard of programmes when the legacy was spent. This involved increasing both the membership and the attendance at concerts to provide the income for the concerts. |
