Last night saw the last of the ‘first’ rehearsals in the new Colyer-Fergusson concert-hall, this time the turn of the University Chorus.
There was a general air of wonderment as members came through the entrance lobby into the new hall, waiting to be seated on the new choral risers.

First to be seated were the tenors and basses, ably regimented by ‘Director of Choral Seating,’ Steve;

Followed by the ladies of the alto section:
