Thanks from St Andrew’s School
It was a real pleasure to meet and hear our Argentinian visitors on Friday. The passion of the jazz and the skill of the ‘a cappella’ singing were particularly appreciated.
Mark and the committee are very grateful to all the choir members who helped to make the night such a success through their attendance at the concert and their warm and gracious hospitality. Our visitors were very impressed by the food provided and the assistance in preparation for the concert. Their Director of Music has asked that we pass on his thanks and gratitude for ‘the warm hand of friendship’ extended to them on the first leg of their European tour.
It was also lovely to have the event in conjunction with Craigholme School. It was a pleasure to be able to welcome Mrs Stobo, the School’s Headmistress and a real delight to hear again from three of the school’s superb musical students. We hope to continue forging International links and developing very positive musical experiences such as this.
