Vocal Technique Workshop with Jeff Stewart
 

Join us for an exhilarating day exploring and practising good vocal technique, under the leadership of the well-known choral trainer and director Jeff Stewart.

The repertoire Jeff will be using is Bach's St Matthew Passion, in English. If you have a score, whichever edition, please bring it with you, otherwise you can request a hire score when you book your place.

Our singing days are popular events, and our workshop on the Verdi Requiem attracted nearly 100 singers.

'Just a note to thank you so much for the singing workshop today. I thoroughly enjoyed the day & the friendliness of the other singers. The humour & patience of the conductor were the icing on the cake!!'

'Just wanted to say that I had a fabulous time yesterday and left the Verdi workshop exhilarated, on a high and wanting more!'
