NEW Rosemere AOS are in rehearsal for their next concert -- Autumn Gold.

There is a varied programme and includes chorus work, duets and solo items. There are songs from shows and operas including Phantom of the Opera, Die Fledermaus, Carmen and The Merry Widow.

No concert by New Rosemere would be complete without some Gilbert and Sullivan. This time, the selection will include songs from Iolanthe, Ruddigore and The Mikado.

There will be an orchestral interlude by the Youth Recorder Consort.

Michael Greenhalgh is conducting.

The accompanist is Keith Bateson, who has been appointed New Rosemere's new Musical Director.
