Hi again everybody,
There’s an opportunity to sing the Messiah again with “The Really Big Chorus” in a Concert from Scratch conducted by Brian Kay at the Albert Hall on Sunday 27 November from 7 pm. If you are interested in participating, let me know (sue.eustace@blueyonder.co.uk) as I don’t mind coordinating a group booking.
I’ve done one of these concerts before and would recommend giving it a go – it’s an amazing experience singing with a really huge choir that spontaneously comes together, and really fun to sing in the Albert Hall.
Singing seats looks fairly booked up already, but there’s still spaces for sopranos, altos and basses in the circle (tickets cost £26), and for tenors in the main singing area (tickets cost £37).
One thing to note is that the score being used for this event is the Novello edition by Prout, not the one edited by Watkins Shaw that we used for Salzburg, so you would need to invest in a new score in order to participate.
