Saturday 3rd December 2022 saw the choir performing Part 1 of Handel's
"Messiah" to a very appreciative audience at St Paul's Church, Astley Bridge, in Bolton. Richard Lea conducted
from the piano, and all soloists were drawn from the choir. and what a talented lot they are! Just amazing!The first
half finished with a very rousing rendition of the "Hallelujah" chorus. Then came an interval, with wine and
soft drinks to refresh the audience, before we settled down to the second half, a mixture of choir Christmas
pieces and congregational carols. All in all, a welcome start to the festive season.
