Alexander Kyle, musical director of Vocalis Chamber Choir, is busy rehearsing with choir members for their forthcoming concert The Springtime of the Year.

But rehearsals are tinged with more than a little sadness as, because of new professional commitments, Alex will be standing down from the role in July this year, following ten successful and happy years.

Chair of Vocalis Kevin Paynes said: “We are all delighted for Alex as he moves forward in his musical career but we are all very sad to be losing such a talented young musical director.”
