classic charts for months. Russell, who has shot to fame in the last two years, had the
concert hall sold out since August.
The choir sang several popular opera numbers with Russell and also had a “solo”
spot with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra when they sang the Triumphal March
from Verdi’s Aida. At the end of the concert Russell, choir and orchestra received a
standing ovation.
The choir’s next concert is at the Guildford Cathedral on Saturday November 3,
performing the Messiah.
