This was a fine and wonderfully atmospheric concert. The choir sang very well - so well that it would be hard not to assume that they were professional - and they were expertly conducted by Clive Walkley. It was an interesting and varied programme, moving from sacred to secular, all the items of which contributed to the mood of a late summer evening - relaxed, contemplative, spiritual. My one criticism is that the acoustics of the church did not lend themselves to the choir's retreat to the altar for some items - necessitated by the need to have visual contact with the organist, but unfortunate musically, as the balance with the organ was not so good in that position. Nonetheless, I enjoyed the evening enormously, and was glad to have made the effort to come from Keswick to hear this concert.
