PONITA  are members of the community choir People of Note (PON) who sing for fun. They perform at a wide variety of charity and social events in a range of venues across Bristol. Over the years they have also travelled further afield to London, Ireland, and Barcelona, including contact and exchanges with other international  community choirs.

PONITA  create an extra social dimension to People Of Note by arranging cabarets, boat trips, quizzes and tea parties. We are a  friendly and supportive group who enjoy singing and being together.

‘Returning to the festival for a second year, we welcome back the Westerly Winds.  This East Bristol wind band promises to entertain you with a wide selection of well known tunes from pop music, film themes and musicals. See how many you can sing along to!

Once again we welcome talented young musicians learning their craft, from Louisa Baker’s music school to the Festival …..

Now of course, Louisa herself has been busy in Australia and Europe in recent months, so we’ll see how her students have fared in the hands of BakerLou’s dedicated staff. We’ll be seeing Louisa tomorrow!

For the third year we are delighted to have young musicians from Broadlands Academy performing at The Festival …  we expect solos, duos and band items

Wouldn’t be the same without StageCoach’s annual appearance at The Festival
