Hi Jackie!!
Just got my ticket yesterday! So I'll see you all in the evening performance in the A Foundation. Looking forward to that already!
:D
It was so great to see them all up there, they're fantastic. A special well done to Gareth. Lots of love, Cameron and Claire from the Crescent.
This is what choral singing is all about! Open Arts Community Choir is making their own music, with wonderful harmonies, and no distracting choreography. Moon River is for me the BEST choral sound of the series! Thank you for some beautiful songs!
How good is the Open Arts Community Choir!!!! Thank you so much for the entertainment over the last number of weeks!!!! I really look forward 2 hearing you in Concert - REALLY SOON!!!!
Hi Bev and all, Your Choir is special and your choir performed some lovely songs and who could not be moved by your version of Moon River! Look forward to seeing you all again soon.
I so enjoyed watching and listening to your choir. You had such a gentle sound that was so pleasing to hear. I really hope you continue to sing together and bring pleasure to those both in the choir and listening to you.

Loved your singing. You truly feel the words and that's more valuable than anything because I believed everything you were trying to communicate. Hope you can jump over the water again and we can all have a singalong. My brother lives in Belfast so I might catch some of your gigs!
