The San Antonio Choral Society is back from a life-changing 12 days in England and France. They had unforgettable experiences singing in Shakespeare’s church, attending evensongs at Kings College and Trinity College in Cambridge, punting on the River Cam, being greeted by King Charles outside Buckingham Palace, enjoying afternoon tea in London, working with master composer-conductor Bob Chilcott, touring the Harry Potter studios, meandering the castles of Chambord and Versailles, singing music by Gabriel Faure at Faure’s Church, being serenaded on accordion with French love songs, eating too many delicious macarons and baguettes, and visiting the Eiffel Tower. The choir’s return marks the beginning of an exciting new season, as they prepare to celebrate their 60th anniversary with renewed inspiration and dedication to musical excellence. Welcome back, choir!
