Saints go marching in......

‘Saints’ , popular male coral ensemble, will take their marching in soon with an enjoyable and entertaining selection of retro music from the 60s thru’ to 80s in their own inimitable vocal styling and harmony at the Lionel Wendt auditorium.

‘Thank You for the Music’ is the title of Saints latest concert to be staged on Saturday 19th October 2013 at the Lionel Wendt auditorium with a collection of all-time favourites.

‘There’s a kind of Hush’ ‘ My Broken Souvenirs’ ‘ Lying in the arms of Mary’, ‘ If I said you had a beautiful body’ ‘ Spanish Eyes’ ‘ Just wanna’ dance the night away’ ‘ Bridge o’er Troubled Water’ - are just a few of the popular songs they will perform that would bring back nos- talgic and pleasant memories. Displaying their versatility they have included few toe-tapping Sinhala hits plus the Nimal Mendis classic ‘Master Sir’ in addition to a ‘Everly Brothers’ sing-along session with the audience

Side stepping a road block, when they lost the highly gifted musician, bass singer and founder member, the late Bosco Fonseka earlier this year, the Saints have now have overcome this setback and put together an exciting and rousing programme of retro music as a dedication to a dear

friend and mentor.

Enhanced by the addition of young blood in the form of the talented duo Chanu de Mel and Marlon Perera together with the mellow and mature voice of Mohan Mendis, the ‘Saints’ now look a more confident and buoyant group with a superb blend of youth and experience under the skillful direction of Suren Abeysekera and Priyanke Perera who balance their duties with aplomb.
