Summer workshops
Since 2010 we have been conducting exciting one-day workshops open to the public and not just to choir members.
This is a great way for anyone to gain first-hand experience of singing great works from scratch under Ian Clarke’s expert guidance, and, if you like the experience, you might subsequently join us for other events.
The day is always absorbing, with concentrated rehearsals morning and afternoon, BYO lunch, tea and homemade cakes provided before the performance and an optional, convivial supper afterwards, which everyone enjoys attending. There is even a plant stall at the event and it’s a very friendly affair all round.
A typical timetable is to start gathering on a Sunday at 9.30 in Old village hall, to start singing at 10.00 and aiming at a performance at 5.30 and supper (with bar) afterwards.
In some years we have held a few optional rehearsals before the event, for those who want to gain extra depth of knowledge of the music.
A charge is made for singers for the event, with separate charges for the supper and for the optional rehearsals. Friends and family are welcome to attend the performance for free, and the supper if they buy tickets.
Please have a look at what we did in previous events.
