Come and Sing! Annual one-day choral workshop

Love singing? Why not 'Come & Sing' one of the choral greats in our next fabulous, one-day choral workshop set to take place in spring 2024? 

The event, hosted by Worcester Festival Choral Society, will combine the chance to learn (or reprise!) the choral sections of a wonderful classical choral work, alongside fascinating musical insights and singing tips; all led by an esteemed conductor and with expert piano accompaniment.

You'll join more than 100 other like-minded singers from across the UK, which will be held in the heart of historic Worcester. Participants don't need choral experience to take part, but some music-reading ability will be useful to get the most from the day. There will be plenty of refreshment breaks to relax and socialise. Plus, as always, there'll be an array of homemade cakes and pre-orderable hot and cold lunches to tempt the tastebuds!

Doors will open for registration from 9.30am, with singing sessions starting from 10:15am. In the afternoon there will be an informal performance of what has been learned, which participants' family and friends can attend free of charge. The day will then finish by 4.45pm. 

Tickets are expected to be £20 (adults) and £10 (students), which includes score hire and free teas/coffees throughout the day.

For a more detailed schedule of the day, travel information and a postable booking form,
a printable PDF of our Come & Sing leaflet will be available here hearer the time. 

Watch this space for more details ... coming soon!
