Sing Joyfully!

You can sing with the Byrds without auditioning, and get a taste of Keith's directing style, in our annual come-and-sing event, Sing Joyfully!  Previous events have seen us joined by members of The Sixteen, lending their expertise as a motley group tackled Byrd's Mass à 5.

 

You just need to tell us what voice part you are, get your sight-singing cap out from where you last put it, and come ready for a whistlestop tour of a large work!

 

 

This year...

 

This year's event will take place on Sunday 1st July at Christ Church West Didsbury.  All are welcome as we nagivate through two masterpieces of the Italian choral repertoire: Palestrina's lovely Missa 'Assumpta est Maria', and Pizzetti's setting of the De profundis from close to 350 years later.
