Review
of 2008 Summer Concert
Our latest performance, which was an evening with a french theme, was warmly received by packed houses on both evenings.
A member of the audience wrote:
"We enjoyed a very entertaining evening of music from your well selected and executed programme, particularly finishing with selections from Les Miserables ..... the evocative lyrics and excellent singing certainly stirred the emotions."
There is a review of the concert in the Friday 18th July edition of the Hertfordshire Mercury. This can be accessed online by clicking here and making your way to page 33.

Summer
Concert 2007
Review
The Society received much praise from it's audiences for it's last summer concert of Rodgers and Hammerstein at Ware Drill Hall.
Susan Hitch at the Mercury wrote:
"The
summer concert which Ware Operatic Society produces each year continues
to give great pleasure and entertainment to its audiences as well as
giving members of the company an opportunity to display their
considerable talents. .....
...On these occasions, Ware Operatic reveals its musicianship, both in the impeccable ensemble of the chorus and in the number of soloists with voices and experience to tackle this music. The chorus is one of this company's greatest strengths. It always produces a splendid full-bodied sound and on this occasion the crisp delivery of the lyrics and absolute unanimity of phrasing was first class. ..."
