I WAS fortunate to visit Toodyay recently for Music Fest where I attended a delightful and truly magnificent performance at the Anglican Church by a group of fabulously talented and versatile singers.
The program was a credit to organiser Emma Pettemerides and included sets by sopranos Penny Shaw, Harriet Marshall and Emma, tenor, Jun Zhang accompanied on keyboard by Tim Chapman.

The Toodyay community is privileged to have Ms Pettemerides attend and share her delight of music.
The repertoire varied from popular arias to well-known songs from musical theatre.
Performers engaged the audience with explanations of what was happening in the songs and thrilled everyone with beautiful duets.
The audience was even invited to sing along to a chorus of a popular song.
The church ‘vibrated’, echoing the high notes reached by the performers.
It was an inspiration and brought joy to my soul.
What a wonderful and marvellous way to spend a Saturday afternoon.
Congratulations to the organisers and the supporters of this event.
