Carrickfergus Grammar School Choir recently enjoyed a memorable tour of London and Oxford including performing in famous venues as well as taking part in workshops and attending musical events.

Led by musical director Edward Craig, the pupils, aged 14 to 18, sang at the Royal Military Chapel on the south side of St James's Park; received high praise from Stuart Barr, best known as Dame Shirley Bassey’s musical director, at St Stephen, Walbrook; and then had the honour of singing a piece of choral music on the steps of Westminster Hall.

The tour also took in Pineapple Dance Studios; an evening performance of ‘Matilda’ in the Cambridge Theatre; the South Bank; Tate Modern; Choral Evensong in Westminster Abbey; the Houses of Parliament and the Chapel of the New College, Oxford.

The choir will be performing at their annual Spring Concert on Thursday (March 30) at 7pm in the school assembly hall to which all are welcome.
