We are thrilled to have once again been asked to join the fantastic Tenors UnLimited when they return to the Stables in Wavendon on Saturday 25 February 2017.

This promises to be another great night of their “Venice to Vegas” show, a clever combination of opera classics and modern day favourites.  Polymnia will sing with Jem, Scott and Paul and also perform a couple of our own favourites.

Our last appearance with the guys is still a strong memory and we can’t wait to see them again.  Don’t miss this great night in a great world class local venue.
