Our final event of the term saw the Big Band cracking  open its annual box of festive tunes for the Christmas Swingalong, together with the Pop n Soul Choir bringing its own glitter.

The band was joined by final-year student vocalist, Tayo, for some lively tunes including ‘Man with the Bag,’ whilst the Pop n Soul Choir channelled its inner Elton John as it invited the enthusiastic audience to ‘Step Into Christmas.’

There’s always a lovely, festive atmosphere about the gig, the final musical event before the Christmas break; many thanks to Big Band director, Ian Swatman, and the Pop n Soul Choir director, Meg Bird.

We’re off for a well-earned break – back in the New Year, when the music merry-go-round starts up anew on 12 January. Have a lovely Christmas, everyone!
