Under the leadership of Choir Director Sheelagh Greer from Ballynure and with accompanist Darren Baird, the 40-strong mixed choir will provide a rich mixture of secular and sacred music, drawing on a range of scores from the shows, folk, traditional, spiritual, with plans to finish with the ‘Anthem’ from the hit musical Chess.

BBC Arts Extra presenter Marie-Louise Muir will compere the sell-out Annual Concert which starts at 7.30pm, while Special Guests - City of Belfast Youth Concert Band - will provide their own unique sound under the accomplished leadership of Colin Irvine.

“This is our 9th annual concert, and I believe it has the best mix of music with a few surprises up our sleeves!” said Sheelagh Greer who enjoys a prolific singing career as a soloist.

Choir Secretary Kay Johnston from Glengormley was equally buoyant, expressing her appreciation to Asda “for sponsorship for the Big Night in the High School.”
