From a member of the RLPC who asked for her comment to be passed on:-

.... Ian, it was a privilege to sing behind your boys tonight. They were a credit to you, their parents and their Church. Whatever you did in rehearsal today worked so the singing was great but more than that they were very well behaved, really polite and it was obvious that they wanted to do a good job.

THANK YOU to everyone who supported the choir on their recent cathedral singing week to Peterborough. We all had a marvellous time and the choir was on fine form throughout the week and it was good to see family and friends swell the congregation, and to see the vergers having to put out extra seats to accommodate everyone! Recordings were made of all the services and a CD and commemorative DVD will be available in the near future.

Indepentent review of Choir CD

2010-10-30T15:53:00.002+01:00

From David Shephard of Wootton Bassett

Holy Trinity Church Choir, Southport
Wells Cathedral Tour 2010

DoM Ian Wells

The choir sang services over 7 days at Wells back in July. There are 12 tracks on the CD, the first and last being organ voluntaries (the first being the rather nice `Gabriel's Oboe' from the soundtrack of the film The Mission), which together take up 10 minutes of the 42 minutes running time, leaving 10 tracks by the choir.

Gabriel's Oboe– Morricone
Give us the wings of faith – Bullock
Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace – Sumsion
Magnificat and Nunc dimittis in A minor-Harris
Jubilate Deo in C– Britten
God be in my head – Rawsthorne
Blest are the pure in heart – Archer
Nunc dimittis in E flat – Wood
Psalms 126, 127 – Garret, Atkins
O Thou the central orb – Wood
Toccata from 5th Symphony - Widor

Bullock's Give us the wings of faith was sung at the Evensong that I attended, which I left with a very positive impression of this choir, and the rest of the CD does not disappoint. If you want evidence of the quality to be found amongst our remaining parish church choirs, then this recording provides it; this is a serious outfit. And for only £5 plus postage, you can't go wrong.

On Sunday, 10th October at 7pm in Church (Holy Trinity, Southport), the Church & Chapel Choirs will present this year's concert.

There will be a wide range of music and more details will be available nearer the time, but we can tell you that we shall be joined by Kirsteen Rogers, Soprano and Stuart Keen, Tenor. Professor Ian Tracey will again accompany us at the organ.

It promises to be a quite splendid occasion.

The Mayor of Sefton and her consort and the MP for Southport, Dr John Pugh, and his wife will be joining us for some really fine music and a lot of fun.

Tickets are on sale in the Parish Centre this morning at £9 and £8 for concessions; these will include a glass of wine and some light refreshment. (or phone June & Bob Ball on 01704 568001)

Proceeds are for Choir funds - primarily to support next year's singing week at Peterborough Cathedral.
