Important: Wokingham Choir – Monday July 18th rehearsal

As many of you will have seen on WhatsApp, due to the hot weather warning, we have decided to move this Monday’s rehearsal from the Bradbury to a much cooler space. We will rehearse at the usual time in St Crispin’s Lecture Theatre (RG40 1SS), which has air conditioning. This is the building next to the Atrium where we rehearsed a few weeks ago.
Please take sensible precautions travelling to and from the space and bring water with you!

Secondly, we’ve had a request for the larger print Beatus Vir score, which you can download and print here if desired. (Please be warned it is 56 pages long!)

Jubilee Concert – audio recording

Thank you to all our singers, volunteers, and audience for a brilliant concert last weekend!
Kieran has cut together an audio recording of all our performances (plus Bohemian Rhapsody!) which you can download for your (private/personal) enjoyment here:

Wokingham Rehearsal Venue update

As announced last rehearsal, from the start of next term (Sept 5th) we will move from the Bradbury to St Crispin’s Sixth Form Atrium for our regular rehearsals.
Thank you to everyone who took part in our surveys and gave feedback – St Crispin’s was the clear overall preference following our trial rehearsals.

Saturday July 23rd final details – OUTDOOR SUMMER PICNIC, 2-4pm at St Crispin’s (by Science Block), RG40 1SS

Please invite your friends and family to join us for our end of term sing-out/social!

Entry will be free – donations welcome.
