‘Pack Up Your Troubles’ – Friday Voices @ Beeston Methodist Church at Chilwell Road
Oct 19 @ 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm
On the evening of Friday 19th October 2018, Friday Voices, a Staffordshire-based mixed voices choir, will be entertaining us in celebration of the Armistice Centenary. They will sing a selection of music to mark the occasion and to raise money for our church charities.  The first half will be a fitting tribute to the cessation of hostilities in World War One, including some specially arranged familiar war-time songs for you to join in a jaunty sing-a-long. The second half will feature a variety of English songs, with something for everyone from madrigals to contemporary. The choir is led by Chris Mallinson, who brings fun and energy to all his work. A highly-regarded, award-winning group, they sing a varied repertoire from sacred to Gershwin to choral takes on modern music. You are all invited to this evening of commemoration and song. Contact the church office on 0115 943 1164 to buy tickets – Adults £6 (£5 in advance) Student/Child £3.  www.fridayvoices.com
