Hi All, looking forward to seeing all you lovely people tonight as we gear up for our 10 year anniversary concert on 30th November. Please line up your guests if you have not done so already. YOu should have recieved an email from Rachel Holmes about tickets but this will aslo be posted to the website tonight. The flyer for the concert will be circulate shortly for you to share.
On 30th November we will rehearse from 2pm to 5pm and the concert will start at 7pm preceded by a pay bar for our guests from 6.30pm (non-singing volunteers please to serve and take money). FOLDERS – some of us have folders which we bought some time ago and quite frankly they are a bit tired. We have decided 10 years mertis new and better folders – these will be on sale for around £10 each soon at rehearsals and you will need one for the concert
Dress for the concert is proposed to be all black. As previewed, Dave has invited two young adult soloists to perform a piece each. Our soloists slot was very popular in last summer’s concert and this is something we would like to continue from time to time as an inspiration to us all. The full repertoire for us is:
Bruckner – Locus Iste
Handel – Zadok the Priest
Rutter – Birthday Madrigals – no photocopies – if you don’t have a score you will need one
Britten – Choral Dances from Gloriana – we are renting scores for this which will be available on 30th November and possibly the previous rehearsal but not for taking away
Faure – Cantique de Jean Racine
Vaughan Williams – Antiphon
Mozart Ave Verum
Any questions on concert logistics to our ops manager Camilla Hall (soprano)
SUMMER CONCERT – this will be on Saturday 20th June 2020. Mozart Requiem and other fantastic pieces. if you didn’t order a copy of MR and need one, we may be able to put in another smaller bulk order start of next term. Please ask me.
