The audience at Hereford Police Male Choir’s annual concert on Saturday June 16 will be getting two police choirs for the price of one with Avon and Somerset joining the city choir on stage for a real musical feast.

And adding extra class to the occasion will be baritone Stephen John Davis, star of Phantom of the Opera, playing the role of the Phantom and many other top West End shows including the ever popular Les Miserables. He has become a firm favourite of Hereford audiences, especially those who heard him sing at a packed cathedral last October for the choir’s diamond jubilee .

Also on the bill is an outstanding Hereford violinist Raye Harvey, a student at the Royal Northern College of Music, a member of the Piccadilly Symphony Orchestra in Manchester and the 2018 winner of the £1,000 Police Choir Young Musicians Bursary.

Between them the two police choirs will take the audience on a magical musical journey covering many of the most popular ever choral music – from much loved Morte Criste to American Trilogy and Rhythm of Life to You Raise Me Up and dozens of others for which the male voice sound is renowned as the most exciting, most potent and most powerful sound you can hear. It reaches the parts no other music can.

Chairman Ray Williams said: “Over 500 were at the diamond jubilee concert in the cathedral and can vouch for the quality of our music. Just imagine the impact two choirs with 100 voices can make singing a repertoire of the very best male choir songs.”

Tickets available from Off The Wall, St Peter’s Street; Jim Jenkins 07766 145460 or on the door. The concert starts at 7pm.
