Farewell to Simon
This evening will be the very last event at which Simon Ible conducts the University of Plymouth Choral Society. During the seventeen years we have been privileged to have him as our Musical Director, our choir has become a bigger, better and happier organisation. Simon took a group of 45 singers and transformed them into the 140-strong membership we see today. On the way he has given us the benefit of his musical experience, expertise, enthusiasm and humour and raised us – a community choir – to a level of performance worthy of first class soloists and musicians, such as we never dreamt of deserving. Simon has our sincere gratitude for all he has done for us and, most importantly, enormous affection from us all. Enjoy your retirement, Simon. |
