Index of past events

The Silesian Ostrava Choral Ensemble came over from the Czech Republic to perform in London, and one of the venues was our very own Colliers Wood Community Centre on a Monday evening, so we went to see them instead of having our usual rehearsal. Christopher made sure we weren't let off, though, as he arranged for them to give us a song to learn together - Ej Lásko, Lásko, which we did, after a very accomplished performance of a variety of material. It turned out to be joyous occasion for all.
