The very popular North Somerset Good Afternoon Choir will welcome Jennifer Meares as soloist, who will be playing the Oboe as their special guests at Christ Church, Nailsea, on Saturday June 14th, at 7pm (doors open 6.30pm).
The North Somerset Good Afternoon Choir is led by Andrew Kirk and they are busy preparing their programme for the concert which will support the choir’s 2025 chosen charity, Memories at the Barn - Dementia Choir.
The Good Afternoon Choirs were started by Bath-based musician Grenville Jones 16 years ago and there are now 34 across the South West of England, South Wales and London, with over 1,600 members ‘Singing in the Afternoon’.
There are no auditions to join and your first rehearsal is free – come alone or with a friend! They meet every Wednesday afternoon from 1pm-3pm at Nailsea Methodist Church. Everyone is welcome to come along to meet Andrew and the members of the choir, where the emphasis is on singing and having fun.
Jennifer Meares – Oboe. She started playing the oboe at the age of eight. At the age of fourteen, she played in the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain, playing in several renowned concert venues, including Symphony Hall, Birmingham and the Royal Albert Hall, London. During her time at Clifton High School, studying music with Jonathan Palmer, she had the opportunity to go on a very memorable music tour to Bermuda.
Tickets priced £10 are on sale from gac.ticketlight.co.uk or by calling 0844 888 9991 – they will be available on the door on the evening of the concert.
Grenville, the Choir Founder, says: ‘It’s going to be a great night supporting a very worthwhile Charity
