Night of Song (information for soloists)
Please mark in your diary that Night of Song is on Thursday 22 August. This very popular concert is our main annual event for choirs as well as a number of vocal soloists. Aspiring soloists who are planning to audition for Night of Song, please note that this year our theme is Musical Theatre, so we are giving you plenty of advance notice that you will need to prepare a song from a musical.
