This is why I came to see them. It was a fantastic show and the songs chosen were very beautiful for the ears. I am glad that I had not missed it,\u201d said Frankline Judith.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe show was massive. I really appreciated the performance. The voices were marvellous. Shows like this one must be held more often, maybe at least twice a year. Raymond is really sharp in what he does. He is really sharp, sharp, sharp. It\u2019s unbelievable. Hats off to him,\u201d said Roland Payet.<\/p>\n<p>Responding to the public\u2019s comments, Mr Clarisse said he was very comforted by their positive response, especially those in support of the choir.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am very satisfied with the performance of the choir given that they did it to the level of my expectation after having gone through the various challenges to put up the show which was very difficult,\u201d said Mr Clarisse.<\/p>\n<p>He noted the choir was better prepared compared to the last show in 2018 given that they had worked hard to improve on it.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Clarisse, who thanked everyone for the successes of the second edition of \u2018At the Movies\u2019, said the choir has no grand projects in the pipeline for now for the public, \u201cbut given that we will celebrate our 20th anniversary in June next year, we will brainstorm and see what we can come up with for 2024,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/seychelles\">Seychelles<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Seychelles.
