What a spectacular day it was for the Truro Santa Parade! Choir members from the Falmouth, Helston, Saltash, St Austell, and Truro choirs came together under the talented direction of our choir leader, Marcus Alleyne. For many, it was their debut performing live, and they truly rose to the occasion. Marcus praised the group, saying, "The choir members did so well; everyone was truly professional in their performance and deserved to be up there." Even though we can't recall the exact weather, the joyful spirit of the event certainly shone through. Members took the opportunity to arrive early, enjoying a bit of local retail therapy before the performance. Friends and family filled the audience, creating a heartwarming atmosphere filled with clapping, smiles, and camaraderie as we took our places, harmonizing in preparation for the show. The concert featured a fantastic selection of songs that had everyone singing along. We brought the festive cheer with the lively 'I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday' by Roy Wood, and the soulful classic 'For Once In My Life' by Stevie Wonder. Each note filled the air with joy, making it a memorable experience for everyone involved. This event was more than just a concert; it was a celebration of community spirit and the joy of singing together. We were thrilled to share our passion for music with all who attended, and we can't wait for our next opportunity to come together as a choir and spread joy through song!Performance location: Lemon Quay Truro

**STOP PRESS** Rock Choir, the largest contemporary choir in the world is set to release their brand-new single ‘Somewhere Only We Know’ on Friday 21st March. The single features the Founder of Rock Choir, Caroline Redman Lusher along with the voices of over 6000 Rock Choir Members.

This will be the biggest choir performance the show has ever hosted and will be an emotional and poignant moment with a few surprises thrown in!
The track, which was originally performed by Keane was recorded over several months when it was performed by Rock Choir Members in the audience of a recent sold-out theatre tour which toured across the UK in 2024 led by Caroline and The Rock Choir Vocal Group. The audience became part of the show and enjoyed a fully interactive singing concert experience.
