Bath’s celebrated Male Choir will be holding their annual concert at St Michael’s Church in the centre of Bath on Saturday June 1.
The choir hit the headlines when they appeared on the BBC’s ‘Last Choir Standing’ series, reaching the final stages. Since that time they have sung around the UK, toured Japan, sung at the Last Post Ceremony at Menin Gate on Remembrance Day and, later this year, will set out for Boston, Massachusetts.
At their concert on June 1 they will welcome a visiting choir from America who are touring England. Encore Chorale is dedicated to providing music for older adults, 55 and over, regardless of experience or ability. Currently comprised of numerous individual choirs around the United States, its members come together regularly to host workshops, go on tours, and present joint concerts. The group is led by its founder and artistic director, Jeanne Kelly.
“We will be singing some new songs that have been chosen by choir members and we look forward to a very special concert with the Encore Chorale,” said Bath Male Choir founder conductor Grenville Jones.
Grenville enjoys the reputation of being one of the UK’s best-known choir leaders. He is currently one of the ‘100’ judges on the popular BBC1 Saturday night television series ‘All Together Now’.
Tickets for the annual concert, which starts at 7.30pm, are priced £15 from Bath Box Office www.bathboxoffice.org.uk
