Last night my husband played his ukulele in Chester Cathedral.It was part of a charity evening to raise money for a charity that helps carers.There was a choir of Welsh learners who had an amazing soloist.The rest of the evening was provided by Flintshire U3A.There were Belle Plates,recorders and the Music Live group which my OH belongs to.5 guitarists,3 drummers,a mandolin and 3 ukuleles.They were brilliant and did five numbers.The cathedral was full!The evening ended with the Singing for Pleasure group doing 5 songs.The whole evening was so good and the standard was so high.What completed the evening for C was that at 5pm there was a knock on the door and our son had driven up from Cambridge(4 hours) and had come to see his Dad play.C was so thrilled.A truly memorable evening.Matt stayed the night and has gone back this morning.
How lovely on all counts.
ReplyDeleteVery sweet of your son to drive all that way to see his dad's performance. Sounds like it was a successful and memorable event.
ReplyDeleteHow lovely that your son drove all that way. I have never been to Chester Cathedral but your post reminded me of when we were in Brewood and there was a concert being held in the church.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a super evening and how wonderful that your son came all that way to be with you both:)
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful event, made all the more special by your son making the effort to drive all that way to experience it with you. X
ReplyDeleteThe Cathedral looks awesome, I love old churches and Cathedrals. How nice your son surprised you all by coming to hear the performance. What a wonderful way to move into the up-coming holiday.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like such a gorgeous place for a concert. I hope it was as wonderful as it sounds. Hugs.
