AGNES JANE ACCOMPANIST
Well
known over a wide area as an accompanist and solo artist Agnes first
started her public appearances by playing the organ at the Chili
Road Chapel, Illogan Highway, near Redruth, at 12 years of age,
a position she held for 11 years. She was also the organist at Paynters
Lane End Chapel for 9 years.
Her long and varied association with music has seen her appointed
as an official accompanist to the Camborne and County Music Festivals
and the Redruth and Newquay Amateur Operatic Societies.
She
is indeed proud to have accompanied a number of professional artistes
during their visits to the County.
Agnes was presented with the Cornish Gorsedd Shield for Services
to Music in 1990 and was made a Bard of the Cornish Gorsedd in 1992.
Her association with the Choir began with her appointment as accompanist
in 1971.
She is, without doubt, one of the finest accompanists that Cornwall
has ever produced and the Holman-Climax Male Voice Choir has been
so very fortunate to have had her expertise over so many years.
