The recording is of the popular song An American Trilogy<\/a><\/em>, a choral favourite which the choir has sung in concert on many occasions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The song was produced in spring last year but put on the back burner until now for a New Year release.  The singers recorded the piece individually in their own homes and it was then carefully patched together by recording expert Richard Reeday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Trilogy<\/em>, adapted by Alwyn Humphreys, is based on the original arrangement by American songwriter and recording artist Mickey Newbury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Newbury put the three-song medley together in 1971 to much acclaim, but the piece saw success again a year later when Elvis Presley sang it in concert and released it as a single.  It became a standard feature of Presley\u2018s concerts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More details about the programme and future concerts, two already confirmed, will be announced in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
