After spending the afternoon at Destinations, in the evening I went to a concert at. St. Matthew's Church, It was put on by Jenny Hill, who after a distinguished singing career now concentrates on teaching. The concert featured a number of her students, all of whom are of a professional standard.
The concert featured a wide variety of pieces from well-known operas, and was a very informal affair; the singers sat in the pews around the church until the time came for them to sing.
But if the format was informal, the singing was anything but. , as their voices filled the church with a wide variety of different pieces, some happy, some sad, some dramatic. Of particular note was Dorinel Bastide, a young French singer with a remarkable soprano voice; look away and you would swear that it was a woman singing. There is nothing falsetto about it - he is not remotely like Tiny Tim - he simply has a natural soprano singing voice
