The Workshop was led by guest conductor Simon Earl, Director of Music, Organist & Master of the Choristers at Christchurch Priory, Dorset. Simon is a highly experienced Choral Director and organist – he is the founder of the Christchurch Festival Chorus and musical director of Christchurch Priory Music & Arts Festival. Simon maintains a busy recital schedule, is an examiner for the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music and is regularly invited to lead and accompany choral events in the UK and abroad.
This daytime workshop featured choruses from Mendelssohn’s popular, dramatic oratorio ‘Elijah’, through which Simon focused on vocal and choral technique, musicianship and interpretation.
An amazing day and great feedback from attendees!
“ Joyous” “ Welcoming “ “the best event of its kind that I have attended “
It is lovely to be known as the friendly Choral Society.
We look forward to hosting many more in the future. Watch this space.
