Many members of Kingston Choral Society were in the audience to see Londinium celebrate their 20th anniversary with a wonderful concert dedicated to the love of music. And what a night it was - with wonderful programming as always by Andrew Griffiths (our musical director too). The Will Hammer work 'Fireworks' suitably ended an evening of brilliant vocal pyrotechnics.
