The 'Let All Men Sing' MCAA festival concert on November 15th was very successful. 405 choristers, conducted by Dr Guy Jansen, and accompanied by The RMC Band and ARC accompanist Karen Da Silva performed before an audience of over 1350. Sara Carvalho enchanted the audience with her soprano performance and $5,836.50 was presented to 'Soldier On'. Congratulation to the organising choir our ARC and especially President Neil Fleming and his cast and crew of workers including especially Members' partners.

Of course thanks for our excellent singing are also due to those who weren't on stage. ARC Musical Director Dr Jonathan Powles and Assistant MD Rachel Campbell who drilled those numbers into members throughout 2014. Thanks MD's!
.....I thought the execution of Saturday's concert was outstanding in every aspect. You have every right to feel justifiably chuffed for what was achieved and you have done the MCAA, the ARC and indeed, Canberra, proud. The people I was able to invite were fullsome in their praise and enjoyment of the event.
