Festival Messiah at St Johns Dee Why

The weekend of May 23/4 saw St John’s Dee Why second Festival of Sacred and Classical Music.  On Sunday afternoon they held a “Come and Sing” Messiah, which a number of M W Choir members attended.  Two hours of vigorous rehearsal led by the Church’s Director of Music Tom Edwards was followed by the usual sumptuous afternoon tea.  Then we sang a to a modest but appreciative audience – several key choruses interspersed with some of the soprano solos.

Also taking part were Michael Wille (Bass) with his wife Lynne and daughter Danielle, and Robyn Blainey, who took this post-afternoon-tea photo.
