Audiences enjoyed a varied programme of festive favourites performed by Cobham Choir in December and a number of our school community were involved! Ruth Smith (OR) is a dedicated member of the choir and Laura West (OR) has been an associate artist for a number of years, performing classics like ‘I’ll be home for Christmas’ and ‘The Holy City’ as well as contributing solos to ‘O Holy Night’. She was joined on stage by Romy J (L5) and Elizabeth Knowles (OR) to perform the solos in Franz Biebl’s ‘Ave Maria’ to warm acclaim. Emma H (R) contributed percussion accompaniment and jingle bells to a number of items, and Matthew H (L5) controlled much of what happened behind the scenes. After taking up directorship of the choir in September, Miss Roux was very glad to bring so many members of the King’s musical community together in this concert. The choir’s next concert will take place on the 28 March and will celebrate folksongs from across the world.
