Ladies Dazzling Performance! 

Henleaze Ladies’ Choir, conducted by Jane English, were in splendid voice at their afternoon summer concert and gave a sparkling performance of ‘Razzle Dazzle’ from the hit musical ‘Chicago’. The concert, featuring a range of music from Brahms to Gilbert and Sullivan, was in aid of the charity Home-Start Bristol, which offers a lifeline of support and friendship to families with young children who are going through difficult times. £250 was collected at the concert and further amounts raised through a linked appeal on Facebook meant that the choir have been able to forward a total of £860.00 to the charity. 

Henleaze Ladies’ Choir, which meets on a Thursday afternoon at St Peter’s Church Hall, Henleaze, perform two charity concerts each year, in December and May, with the charities chosen by the members. There are no auditions to join the Choir and the aim is to enjoy singing a wide repertoire of music together and to give pleasure to audiences.  

The choir is now on a summer break, but will be back to start singing again on Thursday 12th September. New members are always assured of a warm and friendly welcome, so do come along and give us a try!
