One Comment to “Last Summer’s Shows”

  1. Just a quick note to let folks in Charlottetown know they missed a most refreshing and delightful concert tonight at St Pauls Anglican Church. The Suummerside Community Choir teamed up with The Singing Strings to provide an evening of great music and song. Refreshingly different arrangemtns of some old standards and enw pieces as well. One piece was written this year so this is it’s inaugural Christmas but I am guessing it will be a favourite in future years. The lucky folks in Summerside will have a chance Saturday December 17th to see this performance
