Many thanks to the lovely Octagon Singers for a superb concert at the Octagon Chapel yesterday - you excelled yourselves, not forgetting soloists Katharine Horton and Anthony Joule, and narrator, Lynne Davies. The Octagon organ had so many sounds, as it always does when played by Tim Patient. As for Judy Tovey, not only did she accompany the Octagon Singers, she got received earned applause for a stunning performance of the Impromptu in G flat major by Schubert. The icing on this very delious cake was that more than £700 war raised for CLAPA (Cleft Lip And Palate Association, reg. charity no 11081600). Thanks also to members of the audience who joined us for the Hallelujah Chorus from ‘Messiah’ by Handel, and to everyone who came.
