WHEN TWO WORLDS COLLIDE

This show was an important show to us for several reasons. First of all, it’s the first time we’ve done a show consisting of singing only (no dancing or acting or general foolishness). Secondly, it’s the first time we’ve performed in the Emmanuel Church – which was wonderful and acoustically superb. Thirdly, and perhaps most important of all, we performed alongside a large mainstream choir.

Jeanette Wainright (professional opera singer and leader of the 100 voices) led us all along an amazing choral journey that included a funky arrangement of ‘Amazing Grace’, the ever poignant ‘I am Sailing’, a stirring version of Leonard Cohen’s ‘Hallelujah’ and the mighty ‘Anvil Chorus’. We also performed a Latin chant called Da Parcem Dominae.

It was a great show and will hopefully form the beginning of a meaningful and productive relationship.
