Spectacular Classics saw the City Choir and CBSO with conductor / compere Anthony Inglis entertain not one but two full houses.

Sitting in the cafe after the first performance, there was a happy hum of audience as well as the choir – refuelling for the evening performance.

Lasers, maroons, fireworks and streamers added to the excitement at the close of the 1812 Overture. Great feedback on Twitter. Also, super photos thanks to Dan Morrissey.

After the evening concert… If anything even more warmly received by the audience. Great fun for all concerned.

With the conductor and composer on the rostrum, the City of Birmingham Choir and Manchester Concert Orchestra celebrated Karl Jenkins’ 70th birthday in style. A rapturous audience applauded the popular programme of this composer’s works. The concert included movements from Adiemus, The Armed Man, Requiem, Stabat Mater and orchestral movements from the lyrical euphonium concerto played with panache by David Childs. The finale, Song of the Plains, received an encore of the final section. Read the review.
