Several members of the Ormskirk Music Society choir had an exciting day out at the Prescot Festival on Saturday 28th June. A group of eight of us enjoyed a Come and Sing Mozart’s Requiem at the beautiful Jacobean church of St Mary the Blessed Virgin in Prescot. We joined the Prescot Festival Chorus and OMS was well-represented with Maureen and Carla (sopranos), Jill, Margaret, Sandra and Heather (Altos) and Matt (Bass). As we’d sung this choral piece ourselves at our 2025 Spring concert, it was lovely to have the opportunity to sing it again. The requiem was directed by Ian Wells with Peter Kwater on the organ. And with over 100 singers taking part, the sound was absolutely amazing. A very special experience for us all.
