On Saturday 21st March, Gig Caritas Chorus and Orchestra performed The Armed Man at Kidderminster Town Hall, bringing to life the dramatic and emotional piece — one that combines texts from different cultures and faiths.
The Mayor said “The Armed Man was a very engrossing and moving performance, and it took you through emotions of certainty, fear, grief, and remembrance; and then on to hope, compassion and reconciliation.”
The evening had raised just over £2,000! With all proceedings going to the Mayoral charities: Kidderminster Foodbank, Worcestershire Wildlife Trust and Kidderminster & District Youth Trust.
A huge thank you to Gig Caritas, Keith Horsfall, the conductor and to all those who attended, supported the event and donated generously.
