EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1989, we are transported back in time to witness the dedication and passion of the Kirkburton choristers. Led by their talented choirmaster, Mr David Kaye, these young singers are not just raising their voices for mere entertainment but for a noble cause - new gowns. With an innovative fundraising effort on the horizon, these choristers plan to hold a remarkable 12-hour sponsored hymn sing within the sacred walls of Kirkburton Parish Church. Their goal? To raise enough funds to purchase not only gowns but also hats and ruffs that will undoubtedly enhance their performances and unite them as a choir. However, it is worth noting that these selfless individuals have even more altruistic intentions. Any surplus money generated from this event will be generously donated to the ambulance service Heartbeat Appeal, showcasing their commitment towards serving both artistry and humanity. This snapshot encapsulates the essence of community spirit and devotion prevalent in West Yorkshire during this era. The image serves as a reminder of how music can transcend its melodic boundaries by becoming an instrument for change and goodwill. As we gaze upon this photograph today, let us appreciate the unwavering determination etched on each chorister's face – a testament to their unwavering belief in using their talents for something greater than themselves.
