Barnsley Youth Choir
Children’s Choir West
The West Choir have been delighted to return to face to face rehearsals. It has been wonderful to welcome back
many familiar faces as well as welcoming new members to
our team. The choir has gone from strength to strength each week in both in numbers and confidence, and it is a joy to work with them each week. Thank you West Choir for all of your hard work each and every week.
We are incredibly excited to present
two new pieces for you in the concert; a brilliant arrangement of the Beatles classic, Octopus’s Garden, by Sam Gilliatt (he didn’t write this bit!) and the beautiful Christmas song, Love Shone Down. We hope you enjoy our dance moves!
A huge thank you to our fantastic team of volunteers who work tirelessly each week to support our young people, your work is very much appreciated. We are so lucky to have Emma McKenna involved as our accompanist. Not only is she an incredible musician, but we are so grateful to her
that, as a Deputy Head herself, she is
able to share both her time and her considerable expertise.
Finally, thank you to you, the audience, for being here today and for your continued support for the choir. We are eternally grateful and cannot wait for the year ahead!
