Are you looking for an uplifting and dramatic summer evening entertainment in July? Look no further!
Come to Wymondham Choral Society’s Proms concert at 7pm in Wymondham Abbey on 18th July. You will enjoy well-known classical melodies performed by one of Wymondham’s premier musical groups, together with always-wonderful local accompanist, Rob Goodrich and professional soprano soloist, Elizabeth Roberts, who was a soprano soloist at the Opening Ceremony of the London 2012 Olympic Games.
The first half of the concert will include sacred songs by Mozart and Faure, Handel’s famous coronation anthem ‘Zadok the Priest’, and the much-loved Serenade to Music by the great Ralph Vaughan Williams.
In the interval, you can enjoy refreshments in the Abbey.
In the second part of the concert, you will be treated to choruses from the ‘Easter Hymn’ from Cavalleria Rusticana and Puccini’s ‘Vissi d’arte’ from Tosca. The programme will conclude with traditional Proms favourites ‘Rule Britannia’, ‘Jerusalem’ and ‘Land of Hope and Glory’. The ‘Hallelujah Chorus’ from Handel’s Messiah will provide a rousing finale to a wonderful evening of music.
Our successful and friendly choir was formed in September 1980 and presented its first concert the following year, making 2026 our 45th anniversary of singing! The Society was formed to provide choral music opportunities for singers and audiences in Wymondham and the wider south Norwich and Norfolk area. We attract members from across this area and from a wide range of ages, backgrounds and experience – from those who would like to develop their basic musical knowledge and singing experience, through to those who are expert singers and help to support the rest of us – the one characteristic we all share is that we love singing together!
Do come and enjoy our music-making at this concert, which promises to be one of our best-ever performances!
Tickets are available online on the website and from Reeves in Wymondham. You can also find out more about joining and/or supporting Wymondham Choral Society on our website.
