Choir Update
During the Summer Term we've been singing together on Zoom every week, led by our Choir Director Phil. We've been singing favourites from past concerts, singing along to backing tracks created by Phil and Philip with all the parts pre-recorded, and learning new light and upbeat songs to keep our spirits up. We've created a "virtual performance" video which we are submitting to feature in a Making Music virtual concert.
Eternal Light: A Requiem
The concert has been postponed to November 2020 around Remembrance Day, if Covid guidelines allow.
The Fleet Singers are working Howard Goodall's Eternal Light Requiem this spring term. We sang the Lachrymosa "Do Not Stand At My Grave and Weep" from this Requiem at our Remembrance Concert in November and are looking forward to exploring the full work.
Refreshments from 5.30pm before the 6pm performance.
Next rehearsal
We will be resuming meetings in September, we will keep abreast of the guidelines and try to hold them in real space if possible but if not, will resume on Zoom. Please check our Facebook page and Twitter feed for the latest info.
