The Festival of Choirs

On Sunday 4th October 2015 five WI Choirs from around Cambridge and Papworth and Elsworth’s ‘Lyrical Voices’ Choir performed together in a Festival of Choirs at Papworth’s  newly refurbished  Village Hall.  All the Choirs sang their hearts out and enjoyed refreshments served up by our lovely WI ladies.  This year is the Centenary of the WI and each Choir had previously entered a competition for the Centenary Celebrations.  Having them return to perform locally was brillient and over 200 people crowded into the Hall to enjoy a delightful afternoon of Music and Song.

All the Choirs sang together some  well known Gospel Songs for the Grand Finale.  A wonderful afternoon of music and melody.  It is hoped that we could have a repeat performance annually and would welcome other Choirs to get in touch and join us for what is a very great occasion
