After singing to a full King’s College Chapel at our summer concert, where we gave the Cambridge premiere of a piece by John Rutter, KJV is looking forward to the new term. Our older children have been invited to perform with the New Cambridge Singers on December 14th, and we look forward to welcoming new choir members at our first rehearsal on September 23rd.
Rotary Christmas Concert
Thanks to King’s Junior Voices who sang beautifully at the Rotary’s Christmas concert on the 8th December accompanied by Adam Begley. The evening raised approx. £3500 for the Arthur Rank Hospice and the Cambridge Churches Project for the Homeless.
KJV staff and children wish you all a Merry Christmas.
Concert success!
Congratulations to King’s Junior Voices for a wonderful summer concert on July 5th 2016. West Road Concert Hall was filled with an enthusiastic audience as the choir premiered new works by Andrew Goldman and Jamie W. Hall as well as singing old favourites. Our special guests Agatha Pethers and Junior Prime Brass helped us to celebrate the end of a successful year.
A CD of the concert will be available shortly.
