Concert with the Allegra women’s choir, from South Wales

Truro Cathedral

High Cross, Truro

Sunday, May 18, 2025

1.00-2.00pm

The award-winning Allegra women’s choir, from South Wales, will perform alongside the Truro men’s choir in a lunchtime concert.

Entry is free of charge, and there is a retiring collection for Truro Foodbank.

The Truro contingent will sing a variety of songs, some of which concertgoers will have heard before, while others are new to the choir for 2025.  As ever, Musical Director Russell Pascoe will choose a varied programme incorporating serious, fun, modern and more traditional pieces.

Allegra formed in 2011 and has flourished into a thriving, talented group with a diverse membership of more than 50 singers ranging from novices to experienced singers. Having won The Gold Cup at Cheltenham in 2023, for the Most outstanding Choir of the Festival, the choir also successfully took to the competition stage once again at the Mid-Somerset Festival in Bath by winning three trophies. They will be singing a repertoire ranging from Sir Karl Jenkins’ Cantilena to the popular Seasons of Love, from the musical Rent.
