Come and Sing Faure Requiem in London and Paris - Register your committment

Tuesday 4th November. Singing the Faure Requiem in Faure's own church (Eglise de la Madeleine) in Paris on the anniversary of his death.

It is perfectly possible to do this as a day trip on Eurostar, although lots of people made a 2/3 day trip of it last time.

Saturday 31st October will be a Come-and-Sing day in London  and will effectively be the rehearsals for Paris.

You can only sing in Paris if you attend the London day

This is a free subscription to register your interest - it is not a ticket (yet) but we will prioritise all those who have pre-registered an interest.

For now, please only register if you can do both London (31st)  and Paris (4th)

The various editions of the Faure vary enormously both rhythmically and texturally.If possible please use the OUP (ed Rutter) vocal score. If not, we will post a pdf for you to mark up the differences. For some pieces ​it doesn't matter too much but for this it is essential.

NB Barbican Music Shop will give you a 10% discount if you mention Brandenburg.

NB THIS IS NOT A BOOKING - YOU ARE JUST REGISTERING YOUR INTEREST

Paris venue: l'Eglise de la Madeleine, France, 75008 4pm - 5pm

21 November

Have you ever wanted to sing – or sing again! – Karl Jenkins’ iconic The Armed Man: A Mass for Peace or Haydn’s stunning Nelson Mass ?

Here's your perfect chance to sing all the good bits from these popular works in a great setting, a friendly environment and in the company of lots of other singers of all ages and ability!  Doors Open at 12:45PM - From 1:00PM to 6:15PM

We will be singing the opening movement and the choral movements from The Armed Man, and all the movements except the Credo from the Nelson Mass, ensuring that everyone does lots of singing while getting just the occasional rest to listen to members of St Peter’s Singers sing the solo numbers. Check out which movements we will be singing. 

St Peter's Singers will host the event and lead the singing in the glorious setting of Leeds Minster. It will be directed by the brilliant Alexander Woodrow, with Shaun Turnbull on the keys of the Minster's famous Harrison & Harrison organ.
