Personally I too would have preferred a more "tuneful" anthem which felt uplifting to sing and listen to. However, a great pleasure and honour to sing with other chorestors and to be conducted by Rufus.

Rufus and Martin were fantastic. I thoroughly enjoyed the rehearsal, which seemed to go very fast. The tea was superb (thanks are due to the ladies who provided it) and the people were friendly and welcoming. Top marks to Marie for organizing the event. I echo the remarks of the reviewer, if you haven't tried a regional evensong, do make the effort. It will be worth it!

Conductor and organist amazing. Music a challenge but that's good (nice not to have have endless middle C's and B flats). The fact that numbers were small meant we all had to work really hard as every single voice counted. Also it was friendlier - chance to talk to lots of folk and people mixed so well. Thank you for organising it and thank you to Goldington for hosting us and the mega-tea. Goldington was brilliant. Conductor and organist amazing.
