Cromford Choir Concert - October 2022

Alfreton Male Voice Choir brought Queen to Cromford.  The Choir entertained an audience at a concert organised by our WI in the beautiful parish church.  They were joined by Matlock Community Choir who were on great form with an arrangement of 'Amazing Grace' and had toes tapping with Elton John's 'I'm Still Standing'.  Alfreton brought laughter to the audience with 'The Lion Sleeps Tonight' with the wimaways and sounds of the jungle.  They also included a new piece 'Working in a Coal MIne' and ' Big John' that had people clapping to the rhythm and joining in.

The concert finale including 'You'll Never Walk Alone' and 'Jerusalem' brought a very noisy end to a wonderful evening.

We had a fantastic audience  which enabled us to have a very successful evening.
