Coming next : Taplow Youth Choir

Our next event will be the amazing Taplow Youth Choir, on Sunday 13th May at 7.30 pm.  The choir, under its director Gillian Dibden MBE, is one of the top youth choirs in the country and this concert forms part of the Wycombe Arts Festival.  More details to follow: tickets (£8) will be available after Easter.



Something wonderful!


What a wonderful evening we had last night, entertained with much vim and verve by the combined talents of Louise Herrington and James Church.  Louise worked her way from classic opera to contemporary cabaret, the versatility of her voice being put to fine use.  At the piano, James did much more than simply accompany the songs, giving us several Earl Wild solo arrangements of huge technical complexity.  His bravura interpretation of Wild's reworkings of Gershwin songs earned him one of the biggest rounds of applause of the night.  But it was left to Louise to round off the evening with a hilarious rendition of the "Alto's Lament" and to send us all home humming "You'll never walk alone".  Huge thanks to them both for a terrific evening.
