A review received from a member of the audience at our winter 2024 concert:-
"The November 2024 concert was most enjoyable. Such a variety of music as well, with the brass band as guests. I attend the Huddersfield Singers’ concerts whenever I can, and I do think the standard of singing is very high for a local choir. Very impressed with the Alex Woodrow’s direction; the choir obviously enjoy working with him. Looking forward to hearing them again in March." (Audience member TS).
