COME AND SING
Vivaldi’s Gloria and Fauré’s Requiem Day
Saturday 17th February 2018 from 9:15am to 8:30pm
Morning Session: Methodist Church, Castle Street, Abergavenny
Afternoon Session: St Mary’s Priory Church, Abergavenny
Following the great success of the Come & Sing Messiah and Mozart’s Requiem days in Abergavenny in the last two years, there have been many requests for another day of great singing. I am therefore delighted to be able to invite you to a similar Come & Sing Vivaldi’s Gloria and Fauré’s Requiem day on Saturday, 17th February 2018, which will be run by the Crickhowell Choral Society.
As before, I am indebted to a brilliant team of orchestral players, who have volunteered their services, and the talented young choral scholars who will take on the solos. It promises to be another memorable occasion for us all. The day will cost £20.
The number of choristers will be capped at 150 – we had a waiting list last year – so do book your place early.
I do hope you will be able to join us and look forward to hearing you on the day!
