In the charity's own words
We perform 3 concerts a year in Urmston, repeated in neighbouring areas. Repertoire covers anything from popular classics to classical choral works (oratorio, mass, opera, etc), and in 2016 we performed a new work composed by our accompanist, specially commissioned for our 75th anniversary. In addition, we perform one-off concerts to raise money for charity at various venues around the area.
