Make a Joyful Noise

July 30, 2012 by philip copeland Leave a Comment


Spotted this on Twitter – it is a book about a love entanglement within a choir as they prepare for a perfomance.  Someone read it and let us know if it is any good!
 
About the book:
 
Tristan is a choral conductor, twice married and determined not to be caught again. Lucy is a young music teacher in his choir and she is besotted with him. Steve, a bass in the choir, adores Lucy while Claire, a soprano, has designs on Tristan. Various romantic entanglements take place as the choir prepares for a performance of William Walton’s “Belshazzar’s Feast”. Tristan and Claire start an affair that leads them in a surprising direction. The path of true love for Steve and Lucy does not run smoothly and it is after many difficulties that Lucy finally realises where her heart lies, only to face a final hurdle that seems insurmountable.
 
It is a kindle book . . . and cheap.  It has gotten pretty decent reviews – has anyone read it?

    On your recommendation I bought the Kindle edition and have just started to read.  So far so good.  Tristan is a prima donna so far and I am glad he isn’t in my choir never mind its director.  Maybe he will change.  More as I read.
