Downton Primary School Choir, formed by Becky Arch in 2009, has sung in many concerts and competitions, notably at Salisbury Cathedral, and at the Anvil Theatre in Basingstoke for The National Choir of the Year Competition in 2012 and again in 2016. In March 2013, it sang at the Barbican in the finals for Barnardo’s National Choir Competition.
Last July the choir performed in L’Estrange’s AHOY at the Salisbury Playhouse. In May 2016, the choir was runner-up for the title of Wiltshire Choir of the Year.
Jem Sharples from Tenors Unlimited said: “We perform a wide repertoire of all music so there is sure to be something for everyone.”
