Colston Hall Bristol
On Sunday 26th of January we took part in a singing day at the Colston Hall Bristol. This was our second year having attended last year and thoroughly enjoying ourselves. This year turned out to be even better. We were part of a scratch choir of 270 and were accompanied a scratch orchestra of around 250. (up from 230 last year!!) 
The photo shows what it was like looking from three quarters of the way back in the choir down to the orchestra – quite a sight. Obviously, I took the photo as people were taking their places but I think it gives the impression of the size of the choir and orchestra.
We rehearsed in the morning and afternoon and then gave a performance at 4pm to an audience of a few hundred. It was a privilege to sing with such a large choir and the orchestra was amazing (it was hard to believe that they had not played together before 9:30am on the day). The day was hard work but great fun and very rewarding especially as the day also seems to have raised over £7500 for Cancer Research.
