All good wishes for your engagement before HM The Queen and HRH The Duke of Edinburgh. Good to know that you are all still
in good voice after over 100 years!
Whilst doing some genealogical research, I have discovered I am 1st cousin, three times removed of your founder, The Rev Benjamin
Edwin Dadley - a tenuous link, but I'd like to think that at least one gene came down to me as I sing with the Royal Scottish
National Orchestra Chorus.
A most interesting site, and I enjoy dipping into it from time to time.

Thanks for a very enjoyable evening to celebrate the Choir's 30th. Anniversary. I know a lot of work will have gone into organising
the event, but it was well worthwhile. It was good to see you all; my apologies to those with whom I didn't manage to have
a word. It was very interesting to hear the choir from the perspective of the audience, but I have to admit to being more
than a little wistful that I was not amongst you on the platform! Best wishes to all. |

Hello all, and greetings from the south of the County! The K-Shoes MVC were performing in Grange-over-Sands tonight, so we
went along to hear how well they compared with the high standard of Whitehaven. I have to say, they were pretty good. It
was no surprise that five of the pieces were ones that Whitehaven MVC also sing, but only two ("Calm is the Sea"; "Morte Criste")
were the same arrangement. "Hand me down my Silver Trumpet" and "You raise me up" were very different, and "Holy, Holy, Holy"
was sung in German! Looking forward to seeing you all again at the Anniversary Celebration on Saturday. |

visited Royal Albert Hall with the Choir and the weekend was fantastic. The choir plus wives were all helpful, friendly and
welcoming plus the singing, as usual, moving and so moving.(Names down for next trip) May the work the choir carry out for
charity, the enjoyment of their singing they give willingly,happily last for along time to come. Keep up the photo album it

We were recently in Cumbria and had the fortunate experience to attend the Christmas concert. The male voice choir was wonderful
and made even more memorable by the special guest tenor who was absolutely amazing. All in all it was a night to remember.
Well done and make sure you remain a viable group. |

Hi there to Billy King(a cousin of mine). Top of The Season to you and your Family and the other Choir Members.
Great website! Now here's a thought! A Choir of men in a Lake District Town with a website of messages not just from people
in England, but from Australia and the USA! Great CD(the first of many I'm sure). And The Albert Hall TWICE!! Keep those hills
alive with your sounds. My Mum & Dad, Tom & Win would have been proud of you all. Best Wishes, David,Rosie & Sonny Jim The

Graeme,
Many thanks for the fantastic job you have made of the Website, it is a great representation of the choir and of Whitehaven
itself. I think it is also worthwhile mentioning the contribution you and your family have made to the choir over the years.
Almost since its formation the name Wishart has been synonymous with Whitehaven Male voice Choir, lets hope your enthusiasm
and effort is passed on to future generations. |
