Community choir perform all sorts at Cuckfield church
The Cuckfield-based ladies community choir hope their charity concert – for Sussex Cancer Fund and Tearfund – will top the £2,000 they raised for them in 2015.
Most tastes across our musical history will be catered for – from Orlando Gibbons’ ‘The Silver Swan’ and Henry Purcell’s ‘Come ye Sons of Art’ through to ’60s favourite ‘Let’s Twist Again’ and Rod Stewart’s 1975 hit ‘Sailing’.
