The choir's season opened in September 2010 with rehearsals for a concert in
November of Durufle's Requiem in which the choir was accompanied by KEMS
Orchestra, who also gave a performance of Elgar
’s Symphony No 1.
The traditional Christmas concert in December 2010, also with KEMS Orchestra,
not only comprised the usual mix of Christmas music and carols for audience
participation, but also Chilcott's
‘Little Jazz Mass’ which is a great favourite with the choir. Some of the choir members also
joined the KEMS Concert Band for Carols in the Courtyard at Tatton Park,
Knutsford.
The choral highlight of the 2010-2011 Season for the choir was the performance
of Mozart
’s glorious Mass in C minor in April 2011, when the choir was magnificently
supported
by KEMS Orchestra.
The season for the choir concluded in June 2011 with participation in the
Macclesfield Barnaby Concert singing Carroll's 'A new songs measure' and
Berlioz's Apoth
éose/Triumphal March with KEMS Concert Band and Orchestra.
Singing in a choir is very rewarding and is great fun too. KEMS are always happy
