Tonight was the most wonderful evening of beautiful music. The best concert I have been to at the Cathedral since I moved here 24 years ago. Bravo and thank you.
Welcome @ExeterPhil choir, @hismajsagbutts, soloists @HowardIonascu and not least our own Devon County Junior Choir to this evening’s stunning and moving performance of #Monteverdi Vespers. Thank you all for transporting us - for a moment - to the glories of Venice! #music
Threat to YMCA funding
Do please see this video made by @YMCAExeter about devastating proposed #cuts to the services it offers vulnerable young people, especially when homelessness is on the rise again (ymcaexeter.org.uk/helpstopth…). The consultation ends on 19 April.
Together with fellow representatives of the UK’s freelance professional choral ensembles, we’ve sent this letter to the BBC to express our dismay at the decision to disband the @BBCSingers. #WeAreTheBBCSingers
So sad to see MD @laurenceblyth leave us, but pleased for him to be moving on to whatever’s next for him. We’ve performed some amazing works with him. The search for his successor is underway - see the link below ⬇️
Our MD @laurenceblyth is moving on after an amazing 15 years with us. For details about the role and how to apply follow the link, or see our website dropbox.com/s/omq8qrs7nvii4n…
We also deplore the decision to disband the BBC Singers & cut jobs in BBC orchestras in England. There'll be devastating repercussions for professional musicians and amateur choirs. Please consider joining us in urging a rethink of this damaging decision. change.org/p/stop-the-planne…
