The society has praised all those who work behind the scenes to make their concerts happen.

A spokesperson said: "Choir members and their family and friends support and encourage each other with lifts, messages, and help with publicity and ticket sales.

"On the day and night of the concert, when not rehearsing and performing, volunteers help put up and take down staging, and look after soloists and musicians.

"Others are 'front of house', serving interval refreshments and clearing up afterwards."
