Cantamus Concert Sunday 7th October 2007 -Vivaldi Gloria


On Sunday 7th October at 6.30pm Bournemouth's Cantamus Choir performed Vivaldi's gloria in St Luke's Church Winton. The choir was conducted by its Musical Director Malcolm Wood and accompanied by David Beeby.



This concert was especial because it was arranged to mark Malcolm Wood's 40th anniversary of being an organist and choirmaster.



St Luke's Church hosted audience members from previous churches where Malcolm had directed the music. The audience contained a direct link with Malcolm's first organist/choirmaster post - the wife of the vicar of St Clement's Church supported the concert.



Both choir and audience not only enjoyed the music but also the chance to mix together after the concert while enjoying refreshments.
