Our performance last term was themed around the Foundling Hospital and ideas of childhood and loss.
Jan (who organises the rota) sent me this link, to an online article by a friend about her research into 1 forgotten foundling from the hospital.
Vox are an inquisitive and thoughtful bunch, and we both thought you would enjoy reading it.
is proud to announce our summer programme, a sparkling selection of music from Medieval to Gothic to Jazz.
Very special guest Liane Carroll and her trio
will be accompanied by the 100 plus voices of VOX on original songs and standards
(Skylark, Memphis in June and others arranged by Harvey Brough)
The rest of the programme will consist of English Partsongs by Stanford and Sullivan, & Sea Pictures, Sir Edward Elgar’s masterpiece for Contralto and orchestra, newly arranged (last week) for choir, featuring Sir James McMurray playing Elgar’s elegant and elaborate piano part.
These are now linked from the members page.
There are links to outside sites for the Vivaldi and Handel pieces, and a link to Harvey’s Soundcloud page for Particulare Care.
We have a new password for this term and will let you know at rehearsals this evening.
