West Moors Singers 2024 was titled “ Our Glorious Isles”  had a wonderful selection  of  musical numbers from traditional medieval songs and airs through to songs from West End Musicals. Much of the concert was musical numbers that I grew up with, and several times I found difficult not to sing along with Choir.  Happily the audience was asked to join in for the Grand Finale

I thought that the Choir produced a very nice balanced sound  throughout the concert.   The “Oliver” Melody and the “My Fair Lady” Melody were both well done and very enjoyable

I particularly enjoyed the solos “ O Danny Boy” and “My Love is like a Red, Red Rose” , the duet “All I Ask Of You” was also very enjoyable . I thought that the sisters Margaret and Ruth’s  light hearted introduction and performance of “All through the Night” was excellent.   The highlight of the evening was of course the wonderful Last Night of the Proms style finale

The concert was all linked together by a compare who all entertained us with his little stories. The accompanist was the very able pianist John Porter

Well done to all concerned for what was another enjoyable and  very entertaining evening .
