Choir


 

The choir meets on 2nd and 4th Wednesdays at Aughton Village Hall 1000–1200. The Choir would welcome new members to swell the chorus; men or women so, if you have ever enjoyed singing, come along and join in.

The choir will be singing in Coronation Park, Ormskirk on Saturday 28 June as part of the Park Praise celebrations, and at Emmanuel Church, Ormskirk on Saturday 12 July at 1930

The Choir, under the baton of Ken Tinnion, undertook their first public engagement on 16 June as guests of Halsall St Cuthbert's Parish Church in a “Songs of Praise”.

A varied and entertaining programme began with the rousing unison song “When you're smiling”, ventured successfully into a selection from “Oliver” and achieved four-part harmony with “All in the April Evening” and “Hail, Gladdening Light”. The congregation joined in with a selection of well-loved hymns and, to enthusiastic acclaim, Ken encouraged the songsters to an encore with a second chorus of “Climb Every Mountain”. The slightly tense and nervous expressions eased as warm applause followed each number, until the whole choir was grinning broadly when they realised that they had successfully completed their programme. All the hard work of the regular Wednesday practices had paid off. The choir will welcome new members to join them for future adventures in singing
