Craig and Craig's Civil Partnership

On the first day that this was
possible Nationwide and the first ever to take place in Worthing,
Craig from the choir and his partner Craig had their civil
partnership. They'd invited the choir to sing and of course we
happily obliged. There was also a lot of tea and cakes during the
reception at The Grand, Brighton in the afternoon.

World AIDS Day concert 2005

AIDS Day
For this we performed a selection
of English music - Warlock, Skempton, Britten and others.
As Liam, our chair at the time said afterwards, "We had an avalanche of positive feedback from audience members saying how well the choir had sung, what an interesting and varied repertoire it was, and how professional and polished the whole evening was."
We also welcomed the City of Brighton Gay Men's Chorus as our guests.

"Confessions from a Dance Floor" 'launch party'
We were asked if we'd like to sing
a couple of Madonna songs to enhance the party atmosphere of an
evening to enjoy Madonna's latest album release at The Bank by
Seven Dials in Brighton. Ever up to the challenge, those of us who
could make it turned up for a chance to camp it up just a little
and it was quite a good bit of fun.
Watch out Madonna!
"Intermission"
"Oh no!"

Singing at the Royal Albert Hall!

We performed Carmina Burana for
our World AIDS Days concert in Brighton in December 2004, but we
had an offer to sing it again with around 1000 other sings at the
Royal Albert Hall in London. We hesitated for about 3 microseconds
then said yes! So here we are in July the following year.
Well, here we were at the Albert Monument, those of us lucky enough to be singing Carmina Burana (again!) at the Royal Albert Hall.
Yep, that's us!
As part of the Really Big Chorus along with 1,000 of our closest friends ...

We were invited to perform as
guests of the Pink Singers. We'd just like to say it's a lovely
venue with great acoustics. Thank you.
