James Roose-Evans First stage show for pop choir


CLITHEROE Pop Choir will take to the stage for its first theatre performance this Saturday, - November 12th. its members will join top crooner Victor Michael and


. his orchestra in "The Loveliest Night of the Year" at the Thwaites Empire Theatre in ■ Blackburn. Victor Michael will perform the songs of Bocelli, The Three Tenors and tunes from the ' musicals, with backing on some of the numbers from the 60-strong choir. Launched 18 months ago •


by Clitheroe singer and voice coach Susan Sykora. Clitheroe Pop Choir has gone from strength to strength; - : Susan said: "The choir has.


performed at various public • events throughout the year, including the Clitheroe Food; ■' Festival, but this is our first ' theatre performance: We are really looking forward to performing with a singer as talented as Victor Michael and it promises to be a fabulous


show." Susan started singing professionally aged 14 and


-. fronted the house band at the Ritz Hotel, Manchester, for many years. She is a'prolific -


' session singer responsible for numerous television and ; radio advertisements, and


■ has performed in the popular duo, Glory, with her husband, Duncan Sykora. The Clitheroe Pop Choir is


aimed at teenagers and adults, |


/j and performs a combination of pop, rock, gospel and Motown, using a state-of-the- art sound system and high- quality backing tracks. The choir meets on Thursdays from | 8-30 to 10 p.m. at the Oasis


V membership are available from I Susan on 07561 531655. 'The Loveliest Night of


.- Room in St James's Street, .Clitheroe. More details of choir I


the Year" starts at 8 p.m. and tickets, priced £12, are


• available from the Thwaites Empire Theatre box office on 01254 685500.


HANDPAINTED: This Royal Worcester porcelain plaque by Terence Nutt went for £450. ALBUM: This Japanese album made £650. was the


BIDDERS at Silverwoods' latest special sale of high quality antiques were joined in a crowded saleroom by David Dickinson and his team from "Dickinson's Real Deal", who were filming for several episodes of the popular lTV Antiques ' 'programme. However, it was not just items to be featured


on future programmes that went on to achieve excellent prices for their vendors. Early in the sale were three lots of Wedgwood Fairyland Lustre ceramics - a bowl in the


jumping fawn and woodland elves pattern and four-vases in the imps on a bridge pattern - decorated by Yorkshire-born Daisy Makeig Jones. The relative rarity and exceptional quality of


the collection from a single vendor, resulted in a total auction price for the five pieces of £8,100. One of the tiniest lots in the sale was a baluster


shaped Moorcroft vase in the leaf and berry design on a sage ground and measuring just 8cm high. • ; It went under the hammer just two lots later


ij £s* d u n c a i i s m i t h ;


for£1,100-more than lOtimes its estimate. Two telephone bidders were determined


to win a Royal Worcester porcelain plaque handpainted with fruit by respected artist Terence Nutt, which sold for £450. There was a similar level of interest and internet bidding on a pair of Newlyn copper chamber sticks, inscribed j. P. by the maker John Pearson and dated 1899, which went for £700 against an estimate of £150 to £200. A telephone bidder was also successful in


winning a beautifully bound late 19th Century Japanese album of coloured topographical photographic prints, offering £650 for a fascinating memento of the Japanese landscape of the time.


Auctioneer Wilf Mould's favourite lot of the sale


was a very different snapshot of life in the 19th Century. Again with lovely binding, this was a book


with coloured plates by William Dobson entitled "Dog Breaking and Shooting - a practical essay on breaking the English spaniel or pointer with instructions for attaining the art of flying shooting". Published in 1814, it sold for £600. Local interest saw an eventual value of £700


for two watercolours by Edwin Beattie - of Preston Town and New Street from Lords - a considerable increase over recent prices, against an estimate of £150 to £250. And one item dating from 1970 questioned


the concept of "antique", yet still attracted great interest. From one of Denmark's most celebrated


furniture makers in the last century, the France and Son circular dining table, with a red ground decorative lop and a single flared aluminium base, reached £700 before the hammer fell.


The next Silverwoods special sale will take place


on Thursday December 15th. In the meantime the popular weekly sales of


. antique to modem furniture, household goods and collectables takes place eveiy Wednesday, starting at 3 p.m., and free valuations take place every Monday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. For full details .visit www.silverwoods.co.uk or call 01200 423322.
