On Saturday evening, The Dover House Singers marked a very special milestone as we celebrated our 20th Anniversary Concert with a packed audience of family, friends and supporters.

The programme reflected the breadth of our repertoire over the years, taking the audience on a musical journey through choral classics, film favourites and much-loved popular songs. Highlights included Bridge Over Troubled Water, Hallelujah, Moon River, True Colours and Thank You for the Music, before the evening concluded with an uplifting encore of Love Shine a Light.

The concert was not only a celebration of our music but also of the friendships and sense of community that have been at the heart of The Dover House Singers for the past two decades. It was wonderful to see so many familiar faces in the audience, alongside people attending one of our concerts for the very first time.

A huge thank you goes to everyone who made the evening possible: our dedicated choir members, our musical team, the volunteers who helped behind the scenes, and everyone who attended and supported us. We are also grateful to everyone who purchased raffle tickets and refreshments, helping us raise valuable funds for our chosen local charity, Regenerate Rise.

The concert also marked the beginning of a new tradition for the choir with the introduction of our Concert Guest Book. We were delighted that so many audience members and choir members took the time to leave messages, memories and words of encouragement. We look forward to adding to the book at every future concert, creating a lasting record of the people who have shared our musical journey.

As we celebrate 20 years of singing together, we also look forward to the future. Whether you’ve been with us since the beginning or are thinking of joining us for the first time, we’d love to welcome you to one of our upcoming concerts.

Thank you to everyone who helped make our anniversary celebration such a memorable occasion. Here’s to the next 20 years of music, friendship and community.
