This week I launched the @Riverhousebarn Choir and we had 50 people sign up! It was an amazing experience with about 10 people joining who have never sung in choirs before. Never underestimate the power of singing and community spirit. I can't wait until next weeks session 😊

[Jonathan Kilhams @Johnny_Kilhams]

Absolutely blown away by the response we've had in the first week of announcing our new choir!! @Riverhousebarn make sure you're stocked up on cakes for the 26th September - we officially have a choir! So excited!!

[Jonathan Kilhams @Johnny_Kilhams]

If anyone is around this evening and fancies coming to a concert then come and hear @WaltonVoices tonight at 7.30pm in St. Mary's Church, Oatlands. We are performing music 400 years apart starting with some Byrd and ending with some Whitacre!
🎟 Tickets available on the door 🎟

@earthlyvoices Recognise this one guys! Sounding fab! Good luck for your concert 😁

[Jonathan Kilhams @Johnny_Kilhams]

A few weeks ago I conducted one of the best concerts I've ever been lucky enough to be a part of! A full audience standing ovation is what every conductor dreams of and that is what we got for our Messiah concert. The @WaltonVoices absolutely smashed it! 👏 😊

Collection for @WSBHospices 😊

@JennyBourne18 I am so glad you're enjoying it! I wrote it for our workshop in the summer but we ran out of time! So glad you could do it this term with Tom. Good luck with it!

[Jonathan Kilhams @Johnny_Kilhams]

So excited about this concert next weekend! 😊

[Walton Voices @WaltonVoices]

Amazingly we are now sold out for our Christmas Concert next weekend!! Thank you everyone who bought tickets. If you missed out then we have a waiting list that you can join.
Hopefully see lots of you next weekend! 😊

[Jonathan Kilhams @Johnny_Kilhams]

Super excited to be performing at @Riverhousebarn this Christmas with my chamber choir Harmonia Voices. The whole of the second half will just be carol singing so dust off your vocal chords and grab a glass of mulled wine and join us! Tickets available on the Barn's website.

[Jonathan Kilhams @Johnny_Kilhams]

So proud of these guys! They were brilliant last week!

[Cleves School @SchoolCleves]

Last weekend our upper school choir met the composer @ALEstrangeMusic and joined forces with the local choir @WaltonVoices to workshop his music. Much fun was had and the children went away inspired.
In his words...
"what brilliant children you are - you sang your hearts out!"

[Jonathan Kilhams @Johnny_Kilhams]

This has been a long time coming! It's with great pleasure that I share this CD with you. @Weybridge_MVC have worked extremely hard on this and I am so grateful for @ConviviumUK for recording and mastering it all.
