Review - Young singers get them 'rocking in the aisles'
This was a fine performance by the
young singers - greatly appreciated by the enthusiastic audience of
about 250 people in Holy Trinity Church. Councillor Mrs Katrina Trott
commented very favourably on the quality of their singing and on the
enthusiasm of the young singers. She complimented Fareham
Philharmonic Choir for their initiative in creating the choir and
offering young people in Fareham the opportunity to develop their
musical skills.
The performance of Roy Wood's hit song had many audience members singing along - and dancing was seen on the balcony!
