Torbay Music Festival - Kingsmen excel again

The Kingsmen entered the choir category and came first with a great score of 86% singing 'Breaking Up Is Hard To Do' and 'We'll Meet Again'; they also entered the barbershop category singing 'May I Never Love Again' and 'Taking A Chance On Love' and came first again but with a score of 87% and a distinction. The adjudicator Penelope Rice Jones said this was a thoroughly enjoyable performance by an experienced choir. 


Also performing were a Kingsmen quartet 'Enigma' comprising Gary Rowe (lead), Peter Goodliffe (tenor), Barrington Sowden (bass) and Dave Griffiths (baritone) and won with a 87% distinction out of seven quartets. The highlight of their performance being their rendition of 'Hallelujah'.
