Have you ever wanted to sing Haydn’s Creation? Have you sung it before and want to fall in love with the work again? Now’s your chance! Led by our conductor Benedict Goodall, this Come and Sing day takes us through all of the choruses in The Creation in a whistle-stop tour of the work. Through a well-structured and exciting day of rehearsals, we’ll cover the entire work’s choruses, getting an overview of the entire piece, before giving an informal performance for which we’ll be joined by excellent soloists: Margaret Lingas (soprano), Colin Ritter Danskin (tenor), and Benjamin Watkins (bass).

Following the sing through there will be a drinks reception to celebrate the day.

The Come and Sing Day is taking part in the Chipping Norton Town Hall, situated in the heart of Chipping Norton.
