A Christmas Concert in January

​Thursday, January 20, 2022
 
                                    A Christmas concert in January?
 
The popular Bath WelcomeChorus mixed-voice choir, conducted by Grenville Jones, were forced to close their Christmas concert on Saturday December 18 just after starting, when a potential fire hazard meant that St Michael’s Church in the city centre had to be evacuated.
 
Grenville Jones said;
 
“After working for so many week rehearsing and  preparing the items for the concert we were all pretty devastated when we quite literally had to leave the Church in the knowledge that the concert would not continue as the Fire Brigade had been called out to what later proved to be a minor fault in a heating unit.
 
“With the support of St Michael’s Church, the venue for that concert, we are returning on Saturday January 29 for what will be a Christmas Concert in January! We will perform most of the items that we had rehearsed for the December concert with some new additions. It will be a very special evening for the choir and our audience.”
 
There are some tickets available for the concert priced £15 or on sale on the door from 7pm.
 
The WelcomeChorus with over 70 members, have a busy schedule ahead for 2022 including a performance at Malmesbury Abbey on Saturday July 2 with the Malmesbury Community Choir. Prospective new members are always welcome on Thursday evenings from 7.45pm-9.30pm at St Bart’s Church in King Edward Road, Oldfield Park.
