Hallelujah! Haverhill Takes Hundon by Storm
Standing room only as Haverhill Choral Society packs Hundon Church with Christmas crowds.
Over 100 people came to enjoy Haverhill Choral Society's Choral Christmas concert on Sunday evening, in Hundon All Saints Church. The audience applauded renditions of fun classics like Twelve Days of Christmas, sat silently through lullabies and sang heartily along with the carols.
As promised, HCS gave the audience a chance to join the choir as part of the BBC's national Sing Hallelujah campaign. Over half the congregation took up this opportunity, swelling the choir into the pews as they joined either to sing or to listen while Hallelujah was performed! Hallelujah also presented an opportunity to raise money for Children in Need; a total of £119.62 was raised on the night.
HCS would like to thank Nigel Brown for accompanying on the organ
and a highly polished brass quintet which entertained with medleys of
festive tunes.
