This concert was a first for PTN in many ways – the first to be run as a charity concert (in aid of the Peterborough branch of Parkinson’s UK), the first for our new accompanist, Käthe Wright Kaufman (organ scholar at Peterborough Cathedral) and our first Christmas Concert for a few years. Held at Queen Katharine Academy, the concert was enjoyed by a good-sized audience. We performed a wide variety of Christmas music from Gaudete through to Believe (from Polar Express) and Walking in the Air (from the Snowman), and including some traditional carols. We very much enjoyed singing several carols composed by John Rutter, including the beautiful All Bells in Paradise. The enchanting Mary Did You Know (Lowry/Greene arr. Hayden) also became a firm favourite with the choir.
