Messiah worthwhile effort

As a member of the audience, instead of the choir, for the first time for this event, I would like to say how much I agreed with the sentiments of the reviewer. However I knew of course that the performance would be world class. I think the performance was better than ever and the choral work without music was very effective and the effort put into this by members of the choir very worthwhile.

I am back in Dunedin now, as you know, and I would like to catch up with old friends and also to sing in the proms 2010.

I always look for faces I know in the audience, but the glasses I need for reading the score, prevent me from seeing too clearly - if I look over the top of them I can get David in focus waving his arms about in meaningful fashion. So forgive me but I didn;t spot you - though doubtless you saw me!!!
see you end of January!
