Penny Weedon - 19 April 2007 Thank you for another lovely warm welcome. When you 'challenged' me to play an entire programme of 60s music I wondered if I'd find enough good tunes - but you have introduced me to a super decade of music. And yes - I was there at the time :-)) Lovely to see your hall full to bursting as usual. Have a great year. All the best.

Nicholas Martin - 15 December 2005

Having just performed the Society's Christmas concert, I have to say the evening was sensational. The atmosphere was top-rate with the capacity audience entering splendidly into the party spirit. The carol sing-along was amazing - it sounded like they were on the terraces of Leicester City Football Club (saluting a rare win!). This was my fourth visit to the Society and the most enjoyable one yet! Shame about the Mayor's 'out of tune' singing, but you can't have everything, I guess. Ahhh! Many thanks for a wonderful evening - one of my very memorable ones! Great society, audience, hospitality and overall atmosphere. My fourth visit - see you again in 2007!

Michael Wooldridge - 17 November 2005 What a joy to play at Weyhill again. What an absolute joy to play in such excellent surroundings for such a marvellous audience. Congratulations to all the team for making every concert evening a special occasion. Here's to the next time!


Claudia Hirschfeld - 20 October 2005 I want to thank you for your friendliness, your hospitality and the way you organise everything so professionally! Congratulations! It was a special pleasure for me to perform for you within my UK-Tour 2005. I immediately felt like a part of your club family ... and I promise you I'll be coming back. Once again, thank you for everything.

Rebecca Cole - 15 September 2005

Thank you for inviting me to perform for the Society once again. As always, a superb welcome was awaiting me and the audience was most appreciative. Keep up the good work. I've had a super evening each time I have been with you all. Thanks for your hospitality - and here's to the next time!

Andrew Varley - 18 August 2005

Many thanks - if only all organ clubs were as well organised as you are! I love the new video camera system - it looks great. All the best.
