Evan Patton

The Metropolitan Male Choir is having a special open rehearsal on 11 October in the Cumberland Park Community Centre, to give prospective new members a chance to find out all about what is involved if one joins the choir.

. Evan Patton, Musical Director, asks that prospective members to let him know in advance if they wish to come, so he can organise it all with maximum efficiency.
