| Love Changes Everything - The men of the Esk Community Choir |
To find happiness, first one must
know to sing.
Songs have a way of
whispering in ears to calm a raging soul, to catch hearts when either falling
broken or falling in love and, with love being the essence of this occasion, what
more idyllic
a setting to sing on a day which sparkled, than
from inside the quaint little white Chapel on the Green at
Say ‘I do’ in Somerset.

Amid all the colours of Spring, songs
of love sung by members of the Esk Community Choir in solo, duet and ensemble
rang from within to meld with the eye-catching outside displays of all things
‘Wedding’. To the flawless accompaniment
by Alexis and Margaret, a small audience was delivered an injection of romance
with Carolyn’s heart-warming Wonderful,
Wonderful Day, a touch of tenderness from Marina and Brian’s When I Fall in Love and the poignancy of
Love is a Many Splendid Thing beautifully
sung by Kathie and Bob.

If people
weren’t loved-up enough by then, Susie and Eric’s impassioned performance of Live With Somebody You Love would
certainly have achieved the objective and the Choir Ensemble’s emotive Sabbath Prayer followed by the Men’s Love Changes Everything could surely have had either paramour
popping the question. In a sweet harmony
of sounds, The Sweethearts of Song encapsulated the mood with Chapel of Love and The Wedding with
Kathleen at the helm.
Later, it appeared that the extraordinary
talents of some Choir Members did not just stop at the quire when our chic
choir chicks, Kathleen, Marina, Carolyn, Joann and Judy joined with other
models to strut their stuff on the Say ‘I
do’ in Somerset Catwalk, stepping out in the gorgeous Spring collections
from Tiffany’s Boutique in Gatton.
Clearly evident to all who came to enjoy the day was that singing, style
and sunshine in the Somerset was a match made in Heaven!
