58 Year old choir is to split
A WELL-KNOWN Christian choir, which has been going for 58 years is to
fold. The London Emmanuel Choir has announced its closure saying that
recruiting younger members has proven too difficult. The average age
of singers in the choir is now 62. Formed in 1945 by Edwin and Muriel
Shepherd and originally called the Endeavour Choir, it went on to
become a fixture at religious meetings all over Britain. The Choir's
final performance will be at the annual carol concert at London's
Westminster Central Hall on December 13th.
Wonderful Choir. Is it still possible to obtain their music, or any book which may have been published, please?
I too would very much like to get a copy of the 4th festival music - I believe the song "It was early in the morning" was sung?
