.Who do you sing with? and pro or amateur?
Listing for tonight shows
Claire Rutter: Soprano
Jean Rigby: Mezzo Soprano
Wynne Evans: Tenor
Matthew Rose: Bass
Goldsmiths Choral Union
Brighton Festival Chorus
Royal Philharmonic Orchestra
Conductor: Brian Wright

I sing soprano with Brighton Festival Chorus- we're amateur, but only sing with professional orchestras who buy us in. see www.bfc.org.uk
I also play/teach violin- in fact my orchestra is doing Verdi Req next week in Brighton; and I teach pre-school music using the Kodaly method. Love to chat to Crewgirl anytime about it all- I've heard of Abbey singers- they're good.

There was a female duo called "Salt 'n Pepper". That might be the correct answer to 31.

See Push it for lyrics of their hit song.

And 40 could have been "Marmalade"

{Edit: well that made the earth move, just hit the send button and my monitor wobbled across the desk from a reasonable sized earthquake /forums/images/icons/crazy.gif.
