Come and Sing - Remembrance

Join us in the historic Channing Hall in the centre of Sheffield for another wonderful day singing moving music with a Remembrance theme. 

Music for remembrance is not essentially melancholy and there will be extracts from Requiems, also choral anthems and part songs. 

The music list  will cover music by Faure, Handel, Eleanor Daley and many others. Here is a link to a recording of Eleanor Daley's 'In Remembrance' from her Requiem from one of the many on YouTube which we will be including to whet your appetite!

Our sing days are relaxed and informal in nature and we receive excellent feedback from participants. However, they do require some work! As such, some sight-reading ability and experience of choral singing is an advantage to get the best out of the day. We will provide copies of the music for use on the day as part of your ticket price (obviously if you prefer to bring your own copies please feel free to do so). 

As always, Tim will be imparting his considerable knowledge about the composers and music and also vocal hints to suit the style of the music. A list of the music chosen will be published nearer the time and depend on the balance of voices.

Sheffield has a fantastic transport system with not only trains, but buses and trams which extend far out of the City so you don't necessarily have to drive into the City, but park somewhere out of town (at Meadow Hall for instance) and get the tram in. Here are details of some parking options nearer the venue from the Channing Hall's website:
