Clifton Cathedral in Bristol was packed to capacity last evening for a concert hosted by the Colston Girl's School Trust. It featured young people from the school as well as primary school children who are members of the Trust - Bannerman Road School, The Kingfisher School and The Dolphin School. Special guests were Goldies from he St Paul's Malcolm X group and the Evergreens Goldies Club which is also in Bristol. Goldies sang 4 songs led by the two Bristol session leaders, Chloe and Charmaine.
In the run up to the concert the Goldies visited the school to rehearse their items with a band that was led by school head of music, Ben England on piano. Also performing were the 80 members of the Bath Good Afternoon Choir. These are one of the choir projects led by Grenville Jones who of course is also founder of Goldies. The finale saw Grenville conducting the school orchestra, the audience and over 400 children in a rousing rendition of "Thank You for the Music!' School Executive Headteacher, Alistair Perry told the audience: "We have all had a wonderful evening and everyone involved with Colston fully supports the wonderful work that the Golden-Oldies Charity does with older people across Bristol and the rest of the UK."
