Helen Yoeman the musical director of the Glorious Chorus invited Roy Hann, Musical Director and the Kingsmen to share a concert at St John's Church on Sun 3rd July 2016.

The concert was played to a packed and appreciative audience. The Kingsmen opened the show with their up tempo version of 'Amarillo' and set the scene for an entertaining performance with songs such as 'Something', Can You Feel the Love Tonight, YMCA and the audience pleasing 'Teddy Bear's Picnic'.

The Glorious Chorus is an award winning choir having performed at Glastonbury and more recently featured on BBC Radio 3 (The Choir). Helen has written a song called 'Saved' which has been announced winner of the gospel/faith category in the 2015 international songwriting competition. The competition attracts over 7,000 entries in total and is one of most prestigious songwriting contests in the world with several international winners in this year’s contest. The choir performed it during the show and received a standing ovation. They also performed rousing renditions of 'Jerusalem' and 'Caravan of Love'.

Helen and Roy were presented with gifts at the end of the show and both received a standing ovation.

We are looking forward to holding another joint concert on Sunday 11th December, 7pm - Christmas Show with the Glorious Chorus at Kingsbridge Community College.
