Great pitch at town hall concert

A fanfare rang out from the Warkworth Town Hall on May 13 and 14 as two choirs, an ensemble and four soloists performed Handel’s Messiah.

More than 70 singers performed to sellout audiences on both days. They were led by Kowhai Singers

retiring musical director Peter Cammell. “Under Peter’s baton, the performances of Messiah should be remembered as one of Warkworth’s greatest achievements in its developing history of musical performance,” Kowhai Singers member Neil Sutherland said.
