Musicians To Stage First Ever Virtual Concert

The Great Bowden Recital Trust is to stage its first ever Virtual Concert this Sunday.

Members of the group’s ensembles and choirs have performed in their own homes, with recordings being combined ahead of the on-line gig, which will feature performances by GBRT Adult Vocal Choir, Flute Choir, Orchestra and Youth Vocal Choir.

There will also be performances from some of the trust’s fantastic Junior X Factor 2020 Finalists, who didn’t get to perform in the finals of the competition this year due to lockdown.

Covid-19 restrictions means members have not been able to rehearse together since March, and Managing Trustee Sue Benson told Hfm it is great they can use the power of technology to bring them together:

The Trust also hopes to be able to use the concert to raise some funds for its charitable work and it usually collect donations at seven or eight concerts and performances every year, which have not been able to take place.

There will be the opportunity for the audience to show their appreciation by making a donation on-line.

The concert will be available to view online on Sunday via Trust’s website – https://www.gbrecitaltrust.co.uk/gbrt-virtual-concert
