Dowlais Male Choir, Bridgwater Show Choir, Freshly Ground

The winter floods, which wrought such havoc and misery on the Somerset Levels, now seem almost a distant memory to most of us, but not, of course, to the people who were, and still are, directly affected.

Sing For Somerset is a fundraising choir concert bringing a welcome boost
to the ongoing relief effort for the families who have often still not returned to anything like the normal life they used to know.

From popular musical numbers to specially written traditional songs about
Somerset and its people, to the rousing melodies of the Welsh Valleys, the three choirs represent the power and beauty of communal endeavour – reflecting and celebrating the enormous collective effort that was mobilised by volunteers from near and far when the floods hit.

The artists are giving their time and talent for free and the organisers of the evening, Street Parish Church and Strode Theatre, are covering all expenses, so every penny of the funds raised by this concert will go to the Somerset Community Foundation’s Flood Relief Fund.
