The December 1994 Concert featured ensemble items together with what has now become a tradition - items by small groups of Workshop players that they choose and rehearse themselves.
Held in St John's Church Hall in Purbrook on December 8th, we played to an audience of 68, and had a playing contingent of 23. This was our second concert to be recorded.
The Concert raised money for the local Macmillan Cancer Nurses charity.
Their reply included "I would like to thank you for sending us a tape of the music from your Christmas Concert ... I was enchanted with the music and must congratulate your players on the standard they have achieved"
