Two choirs have announced plans for a concert later on this year.

The combined voices of the Lon Dhoo Male Voice Choir and the Lon Vane Ladies Choir will perform a concert of traditional songs and popular music on Saturday, October, 17, at St Andrew’s Church, Glencrutchery Road, Douglas at 7.30pm. The concert is held biennially in support of the Douglas Buxton Music Trust and will feature guest soloists and instrumentalists. Both choirs were formed by Douglas Buxton, with the men’s choir beginning in 1937 and the women in 1946.

Tickets for the evening cost £5, available from choir members or on the door.
