THE audience was treated to a wonderful evening of music and song recently at Milton Abbot Church where the Valley Voices Choir performed along with the Milton Abbot School Choir.

The Valley Voices directed by Elizabeth Saudek, entertained the audience with a variety of songs from different genres, including a well- known spiritual Joshua fought the battle of Jericho, a Welsh traditional song Suo Gan and an amusing rendition of The Teddy Bear’s Picnic.

In addition, the children of Milton Abbot School Choir was in fine voice, singing a medley of songs conducted by Maggie Peacock. In particular, the folk song The Streets of London proved to be a favourite with the audience who joined in with the chorus.

The programme also included some amazing solo performances from Gabrielle Lewis on the organ, Kodai Benjamin, saxophonist and Kai Benjamin on guitar.

Thanks were expressed to everyone who sang and played, the Rev Andy Atkins for being the MC, the parochial church council which helped on the night and the audience for their support.

It was described as a musical treat!
