Male choir prepares to sing around Belgium
1:27pm Thursday 17th May 2001
THE talented Chess Valley Male Voice Choir will be jetting off to Belgium to sing at a series of concerts.
The choir of more than 40 will be performing in Ypres and De Haan and are taking part in the Last Post Ceremony at the Menin Gates in Ypres.
Their first tour abroad was in 1998 when they went to Prague to sing with various choirs.
Chris Palmer, a member of the choir said: "This is our second big overseas trip and we were invited to go there.
"It will be a very marvellous occasion.
"We are looking forward to giving more money to charity in the area and looking for new members and new talent."
Over the eight years they have been together, the choir has sung in more than 80 concerts and raised £25,000 for charities.
