2010 Concert Congratulations and very well done! The concert on Saturday was most enjoyable. The content and the performances were excellent. Altogether a very enjoyable evening. Roll on next year.
Amy McArthur (by e-mail)
You have done it again and given us a wonderful night's entertainment. I loved the song and film about the train. It was something different, and I enjoyed hearing the orchestra on its own. I have been to several of your concerts now and admire the standard of performance you maintain. Hope to see you again next year.
E.B. Blair (Glasgow)
What an absolutely brilliant concert. The choice of music
was exceptional, making for a very enjoyable evening. The orchestra,
soloists and chorus produced an excellent sound. Well done
to all concerned.
John Urquhart (NODA Representative)
"Thank you for a wonderful evening of music and song
on Saturday. We have been attending your concerts for several
years now and each one is better than the one before. I don't
know how you do it. Can't wait to see what you do next year."
Best wishes James and Anne Wright (Glasgow)
"My family and I were at your concert on Saturday having
picked up a flyer. We were blown away by it. What a spectacle
with so many singers and the big orchestra, and the programme
of music was fabulous. Why have we not heard about ACE before?
We will be back next year."

"CON-GRAT-U-LATIONS!! - As the song goes - heard it somewhere
last night.
A lot of people were saying as we left the theatre "the best yet".
I agree!
Looking forward to next year."

"I was in the audience last night with friends and family.
What a super evening. The choice of programme was really
enjoyed by lots of people all around me. One woman was even
up dancing to the Pop Medley."

"Wow! What a fantastic concert. I was in a group of 12
and we all had a great night. We were even up dancing to
the medleys."
Karen Short (East Kilbride)
"I went to your concert last Saturday to support Bobath
Scotland and had a brilliant evening. What a talented group.
The singing, the orchestra, and the whole performance were
excellent. There was a very good mixture of songs, all very
well sung, and I particularly enjoyed the orchestra's rendition
of Lara's Theme as that is one of my favourite pieces. Well
done! Very best wishes to you for the future."

Previous Concerts "A most enjoyable evening at ACE Chorus Entertains last Saturday in the Clyde Auditorium. I came along to support the charity, Alzheimer Scotland, and came away feeling very uplifted, having just spent a lovely evening listening to some wonderful singing. I will be back next year and I wish you all well."
Elizabeth Nairn (Glasgow)
"The concert last night was brilliant!!! What talented people and a such a selection of songs! How on earth do you manage to remember all these words after only rehearsing for 12 weeks? And the guests were superb too! Great evening all round. My friends and I enjoyed it enormously. We will be back next year."
A Scott (Edinburgh)
"Once again a thoroughly enjoyable evening at the Armadillo. Many thanks to all those involved. Please let me know when ACE 2009 will take place. God willing, we will certainly be there."
R H Russell
"An ACE concert is never a disappointment! We have been attending for some years now and marvel at the consistantly high standard of performance. The choice of music is also always excellent, something for everybody, and performed so well. We thought the concert dress was very effective, the mens' ties matching the ladies' blue blouses. The large orchestra is a delight. From the first note to the last, an ACE experience!"
Brenda Forbes
"I don't know how you do it, but each year your performance gets better and better. Every year I think that you can't do any better but every year you do! The singing was wonderful, a joy to listen to and such a great programme. Already looking forward to next time."
James Anderson & family
"My husband and I attended ACE Chorus Entertains on Saturday and how apt the title of the concert was. We were very well entertained. We had our own personal favourites but there was something in the programme for everyone, and the school choir sang very well too." Carole Seath
"Congratulations on an excellent performance on Saturday. We have been to all your concerts and think that this is the very best yet, although we have enjoyed them all. The chorus sounded and looked marvellous. We took our parents with us this year and they were particularly thrilled to hear the Carpenters and Seekers songs, as they were favourites of theirs in their younger days."
Raymond and Catherine Annan
"I was at Rhythm of Life last month and just had to write and say what a wonderful concert. I can hardly believe that you are not professional singers, the singing was so good. Keep up the good work."
Elizabeth Blair (Glasgow)
"For the first time we attended your concert in the Clyde Auditorium on Saturday and were most impressed by the sheer professionalism of it. You sang many of our favourite musical numbers and we enjoyed the whole show. We will be watching for your concert next year. Thank you for a wonderful time."
Robert and Esme Thomson (Falkirk)
"Congratulations on another musical success. My family and I spent a most enjoyable evening at the Armadillo on Saturday. the selection of songs was excellent and we particularly enjoyed the wonderful finale. The children's choir was a treat."
John Malcolm (Renfrewshire) "I was at The Best of ace last Saturday, the first time I have attended an ace concert, and I had a most enjoyable evening. The whole concert was professionally performed, the singers excellent and the orchestra a delight. I will be back next year."
Mary James (Renfrewshire)
"Another triumph for ace! I have been to all your concerts and think that The Best of ace was indeed one of your very best. Everyone looked as if they were enjoying themselves and the singing was superb. I did love the encore of Grease. A rousing finish to a wonderful evening of music. Long may you continue to entertain us."
Julia McIntosh (Glasgow)
"Great show! Excellent sound! Very varied programme! Enjoyed Neil Mudie as host! Well done!"
Brian Rattray (Fife)
"Just had to drop you a line to say how much we enjoyed your show on Saturday. My friends and I came along at the last minute not knowing what to expect, and we were thrilled with the whole experience. Congratulations to everyone involved."
Dot Robertson (Glasgow)
"My wife and I were given tickets to The Best of ace in The Clyde Auditorium as a present from our son. We had the most enjoyable time as we are both great fans of musical theatre, and thought that the content of the programme was excellent. The singers, accompanied by that tremendous orchestra, sounded fantastic. We particularly liked the wonderful finale of songs from Les Misérables."
Bill and Irene Thomson (Lanarkshire)
"After submitting my subscription I didn't know what to expect, however, I was very pleasantly surprised to find it truly was ace. Not only did I enjoy getting to know the other members of the group, but found singing with a huge professional orchestra, in front of over a thousand people very exhilarating - a real confidence boost and an unforgettably enjoyable experience"
Bev Sweeney (Glasgow)
"I have been a member of ace since it started and I have enjoyed every minute of it. Prior to joining the chorus, I hadn't sung since I was a child, and was very nervous about going along. However, I did, and have never regretted it. In addition to enjoying the amazing experience of the concerts and the excellent vocal coaching, I have made many friends among the group. I would thoroughly recommend joining up!!"
Arlene Forbes (Edinburgh)
"A unique experience and a great opportunity to perform on stage with such a huge orchestra and chorus. Nothing prepares you for the sheer thrill of hearing that big sound for the first time!! I love it! It's ACE!!!"
Sandra Thomson (Edinburgh)
"I joined ace for their first concert, and am pleased to say it is the best thing I've done in ages. Having been in Amateur Theatre for 20 years, it was great to - "get a really good sing". It has been great fun and a fantastic education. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys the challenge, the rewards and a great social life too!"
Julie Watson (Edinburgh Chorus)
