A member of the Royal Shakespeare Company and former Springwood High School pupil is returning to King's Lynn to perform as a soloist with the Festival Chorus.
Alexandra Ferrari will be performing in Britten's A Boy was Boy at A Fanfare For Christmas on Sunday, December 3, at 5pm in St. Nicholas' Chapel, King's Lynn.
Ms Ferrari was a member of the Festival Chorus from the age of 15, also taking singing lessons from local singing teacher, Fiona Marshall.
Under her guidance, and encouragement from Festival Chorus music directors, she secured a place at the Birmingham Conservatoire.
Ms Ferrari said: 'I'm really looking forward to coming back to sing with the Festival Chorus, among friends who have given me so much encouragement in every way as I was growing up.
