A WREXHAM choir is inviting you to join them for their annual ‘Summer Serenade’ concert.
Following the success of their ‘Spring Serenade’ concert at St Giles’ Church, Wrexham in April, where the Sirenian Choir was joined by Lidingö Vox, from Stockholm, and their performance in the Mayor’s Charity Concert, also in April, the choir is very much looking forward to performing Schubert’s Mass in G and other pieces by Handel, Parry, Rutter, Jenkins and Lauridsen.
Sirenian Singers will be conducted by musical director Jean Stanley Jones MBE. Jean founded the choir and has won many awards and prizes for her conducting musicianship, including at the Bartok Festival in Hungary and the Welsh National Eisteddfod. She was formerly the head of Flintshire Music Service.
The concert will take place on Friday, July 12 at All Saints’ Church in Gresford at 7.30pm.
Tickets are priced at £12.00, under 16 free, available from Eventbrite, choir members and at the door. Interval refreshments will be available. For details visit www.SirenianSingers.org
