A CHOIR in Melksham will be hosting two Spanish musicians later this month as part of its Spring Concert.
Melksham Choral Society will not only welcome pianist Maria Angel Garcia again, but also her sister Inmaculada too.
Inmaculada Garcia will be flying in especially from Valencia to play alongside Maria in the concert.

The virtuosos will play as a duo in the four-hands accompaniment to the choir's performance of the Love Song Walzes by Brahms.
To compliment the piece the choir will also sing Elgar's Bavarian Highlands.
The programme will also inlclude a special treat of the piano duet arrangement of the Spanish Rhapsody by Ravel played by the two sisters.
As part of its commitment to the wider community the society is supporting the Oxjam music festival, with a collection.
The music festival is run by Oxfam, in aid of its work to overcome poverty and suffering around the world.
Melksham Choral Society's musical director, Tom Worley, said: "We are very proud that our concert will be part of a national musical festival raising funds and awareness for Oxfam's essential work."
