Was this week-end at St Roch Church, Paris, by the choir of 'Academie Musicale de Liesse'.
Thoughts ?
Pretty good soloist. They're very active on social media but rarely post video, so this was a rare chance to hear them.

I was impressed with their Leeds United ties but less so with the singing.
If I’ve got owt to say I says it, and if I’ve got owt to ask I asks it.

OMG Their outfits are so ugly I found at times during concerts I could only get focused on that
I usually like to hear their soloists but not so much the whole sound of the choir. I have not attended their concerts for a while.
I've been at a concert from "Les petits chanteurs à la croix de bois"(Little singers of Paris) in February though and it was pretty good ! Got to witness the choirmaster's special directing movements first hand
