The following review was printed in the Woldingham magazine.
“It was a delight to go to a concert again at St Paul’s Church on 13th November, and the first we have attended since the pandemic. We thoroughly enjoyed hearing the North Downs Consort performing an eclectic programme ranging from Haydn’s Creation to Gerschwin’s ’Swonderful.
The choir sounds most professional under the guidance of its inspirational conductor, Iain Cooper. We were also treated to three organ pieces beautifully played by James Norrey on the excellent church organ. Regrettably the usual friendly refreshments during the interval were omitted for Covid restrictions.
The Conductor and most singers come a long way to perform, and we feel these concerts could be better publicised to attract a wider audience from the village.
Jenny and Colin Mander.”
