Dorset, Charlton Down: Russian Choir from St. Petersburg, 11 October 2014






On YouTube  "Voskresenije" performs Rachmaninov's "Now Lettest Thou."

My first visit to the impressive ballroom, ideal for a concert, especially a sell-out with standing ovations.

"This magnificent Victorian Ballroom was originally designed by the architect G. T. Hine, and was built in 1894/5 for the community at the former Herrison Hospital. It has been recently restored to its former glory thanks to tireless campaigning by local residents after threat of demolition during the redevelopment of the hospital site".
