After huge success at the Big Sing WaiBOP regional in June, Bel Suono Choir is counting the days until the Big Sing Finale competition in Christchurch! From Thursday, August 25 - Sunday, August 27, the choir will perform and compete in multiple sessions against the top 24 choirs in New Zealand.

This is an extremely prestigious opportunity for Bel Suono, and the members are working hard to perform to their very best.  In preparation, the choir will have another workshop with Rowan Johnstone, the director of a fellow choir competing at the Big Sing Finale. This is the first year ever that Bel Suono will be attending, and it is so great to see such hard work paying off for the choir.

This Saturday, 13 August, Bel Suono invite our community to a mini concert from 4.00 pm to 4.30 pm in the All Saints Chapel (parking via River Rd entrance). They'd love your support.

Best of luck at Finale Bel Suono!
