Barry Grime (President)
Born at St Just, Lands End, of a Cornish mother and Lancastrian father, Barry Grime has absorbed love of music in the Celtic Tradition. Mother was a soloist for many years in mid Cornwall church and chapel concerts and father an active promoter in the local brass band world.
Barry, after training in engineering in the UK and overseas with a bit of choral singing thrown in, returned to Cornwall in 1959. Married to a Cornish girl, Kay, with three successfully launched children, he always wanted to get into choral singing again. His satisfaction as a new Chief Engineer in the china clay industry in 1962, was to be involved in the formation of this choir and to have been associated with it ever since. He always promised to sing with the choir in retirement and has enjoyed doing just that since retiring as Engineering Director of ECC International in 1991.
