Thank you to those who have purchased tickets for the Jubilee Concert so far!

We are still looking to sell many more tickets if we can, so do spread the word and encourage your friends and family to come along!

Wokingham Choir: we’d also love to see you there!

For this final week ahead, please consider sharing our flyer (Downloadable Jubilee Poster), Facebook event (https://fb.me/e/1pCBvGzcR) or ticket page link: https://singhealthy.co.uk/tickets/ and remember to purchase tickets in advance.

For Bracknell Choir members, please see the final details for the concert day below.

For both choirs, we also have our social/sing-out at St Crispin’s on Saturday July 23rd: please invite friends and family to this too! There will be no tickets, rather we will ask for donations to cover costs.

Please arrive c.2pm for a 2.30pm start. The event will run until c.4pm.

As well as a small number of pieces we have learnt this term (TBC), we’ll aim to sing two simple joint pieces:

• Down to the River (new for Wokingham this term)
• Summer is a-coming in (new for both choirs) 

Please bring these along to the remaining rehearsals along with our current repertoire.

July 23rd will mark the end of term and our Autumn term will commence on September 5th.

Many thanks for your attention,

Louise
