HIGHLIGHTS OF LAST SEASON
THE ARMED MAN : Karl Jenkins
Ryton Chorale were joined by members of the Chorale du Millenaire, from Aurillac, Retford's twin town in France, for a concert in Retford Town Hall on 10th May. On a very warm evening, the audience enjoyed pieces sung separately by ourselves and our French visitors, before hearing a powerful and moving joint performance of Karl Jenkins' THE ARMED MAN. The visit, though short, was enjoyed by everyone involved, and forged even closer links between Bassetlaw and Aurillac.
ST. MATTHEW PASSION : J.S. BACH
On Palm Sunday 2008 the choir gave a special performance of this choral masterpiece in "The Crossing", Worksop.
