Poulton Hall Gardens Open Days April 2025
We enjoyed the two premiere performances of our Myths and Legends programme in the beautiful setting of Poulton Hall Gardens. The gardens were a perfect setting with sculptures and statues that represent myths and legends. We performed 3 movements from the brand new Arthur Suite composed by our Conductor Greg Williams and other music including Doctor Who, Robin Hood, Star Wars and Wicked.

Llangollen Eisteddfod - July 2024
Llangollen Eisteddfod - July 2024
What a great day we had - despite the rain! After a very early start, we performed at 10am on the main stage in the Pavilion which was a great experience. After a couple of hours to take in other performances and visit the trade stalls, we played on the Globe stage. This was under cover thankfully, although the sun did decide to show itself as we were playing. We played to a full, appreciative house before travelling home.
Rehearsals
Rehearsals take place every Sunday between 9:45am and 12:00pm at Heswall Hall, 111 Telegraph Road, Heswall, Wirral, CH60 0AF.
We always make time for a cuppa and chat half way through.
