" MANILVA BRASS BAND CONCERT " WITH GUEST CONDUCTOR 'CATHY KOTOUN' FRIDAY EVENING;

CHRISTMAS CONCERT.

MANILVA LAST NIGHT.

CHRISTMAS CONCERT  AT ‘ IGLESIA de STA. ANA. THURSDAY 20 / 12 / 2012.

Last nights Christmas Concert was the best attended and one of the best ever musically in the seven years that we have seen it; Fernando had put together a great selection of different sorts of music on a very special night, it started with ‘ Bolero ’ with the full Manilva Brass Band at its best. ‘ Carmina Burana ’a new piece was very well received as was the two choral songs from the senior choir and then the children’s; the hit of the evening was Fernando’s interpretation of the Gospel song ‘ Oh Happy Days ’with the lead being taken by a young senorita with a “ Helluva ” voice! The usual ‘ Marcha Radetsky ’ – the ‘ Clapping Song ’ends the concert and for an encore the whole orchestra and the entire choir sing  ‘ Jingle Bells ’in Spanish of course!!  Sally Ann’s son Dylan, with the Red hair was in the junior choir and one of our neighbours children was a lead singer when five young senioritis did a choral piece. The pictures above are taken from the Council web page as they are better than mine ! Thanks !!

Thought for the Night;

Excellence is the unlimited ability to improve the quality of what you have to offer.
