John Rutter leads this brand new Singing Day devoted to choral pieces by a variety of composers old and new and some of John’s own music.  The event is suitable for those who have at least some choral experience and music-reading ability, but no advance preparation is expected.  Join us for a fun day of music-making and John will also slip in some vocal and musical hints and tips for singers.  The day will begin at 11am and will end by 5pm.  The fee includes lunch and the usual breaks for tea/coffee and cake.
