Halton Military Wives Choir
Members of RAF Halton Military Wives Choir were lucky enough to be involved in a recording opportunity recently. 14 ladies travelled to the home of the RAF Central Band at RAF Northolt to join forces with members of other Military Wives Choirs from North London, Benson, Defence Academy and Odiham to record two tracks for the upcoming ‘Home For Christmas’ Album which is due to be released this month. Ably directed by the charismatic Hilary Davan Wetton fun was had by all in the studio and hopefully the outcome will be enjoyed by many people in the coming months. The album features a number of new carol arrangements that have been crafted especially for the Military Wives Choirs. The album release is due to coincide with the beginning of a national cathedral tour that is due to begin in Winchester on 21 Nov. We can’t wait to hear the results.
RAF Halton Military Wives Choir has been running for over three years now and its members have been lucky enough to participate in the likes of the BBC Warhorse Prom with Gareth Malone, National Remembrance activities along with local events such as Armed Forces Day and Kop Hill Climb. They are always looking for new members. If you have a military connection and would like to take up singing with the choir they can be contacted at halton@militarywiveschoirs.org.
