Letter of thanks: Autumn Concert
Dear HCS members,
I am writing to send a big
thank you to everyone who took part in Tuesday’s concert. There
were a lot of positive comments from the audience, saying how
wonderful the choir sounded. We thank Kate for her expert direction
and her lovely solo items and Matthew for accompanying so well and
for his great solo pieces.
I do hope that our new
members enjoyed taking part in the concert. I really felt that our
new voices contributed much to enhancing the sound of the choir –
making us even better than we were before!
So much hard work goes
into staging a concert so thank you again to all our unsung heroes
who book venues, arrange publicity, set up staging, sell tickets,
serve refreshments and clear up afterwards. Thank you to everyone.
Christine and Isabel
