Do you know a boy who loves to sing?
Sign up now for our next Chorister Experience Day on Saturday 10th October!
Attendees will tour the Abbey, meet current Choristers, and sing in a choral Evensong service. Find further details and apply at the link below.

ALT An eye-level shot captures a group of boys in bright red robes with white ruffs, kneeling around the Grave of the Unknown Warrior on the stone floor of Westminster Abbey. The grave is framed by a thick border of red poppies. The boys are being encouraged to look at the poppies by an accompanying man who is teaching them about the memorial.
Might it appear that watching the conductor has gone out of fashion?!
Rehearsals underway ahead of our concert for @3choirs tomorrow. Prog to incl. the world prem of Greg Murray’s vocal arr. of VW’s Fantasia on a theme by Thomas Tallis, and a special performance of Spem in alium with Oriel Singers 3choirs.org/events/ora-singe…
Oh dear...
We're marking National Beer Day in the Playlister @BBCRadio3 It's on this date because the Magna Carter was sealed on this day in 1215, and it called for: 'a single measure for ale throughout our kingdom'. Where next from John Gardner's 'Midsummer Ale' Overture? Cheers!
Diversifying with great pleasure!

Pianist @jpianomiddleton makes so many devastatingly important points in this must-read article about how the arts, in particular classical music, are currently assailed upon all sides theartsdesk.com/classical-mu…

@RevRichardColes Saturday Live has been defined by your brilliant hosting for so long and we love you. Unbelievably poor management is making a once brilliant organisation implode,which it will. @BBCSingers @BBCCO @BBCSO theguardian.com/tv-and-radio… – at Witney, England
More support from more big guns. Come on @Lornaatwork out of your hole and tell us why you haven't uttered a word in ten days. Common courtesy...? #WeAreTheBBCSingers
NEW LETTER:
The chief conductors of *ALL* the European radio choirs are uniting against the planned closure of the @BBCSingers!
We urge those responsible @BBC to reconsider. This world-class choir must be at the centre of any new strategy for choral music.
#WeAreTheBBCSingers
Great work Ed. @Lornaatwork (but seemingly Lornanotatwork) and her cronies have no idea about any of @BBCSingers talents. If only they would attend one of these sessions...
An absolutely stonking letter. Please RT everywhere you can think of. My reaction is to be absolutely horrified and disappointed but not remotely surprised at this atrocious behaviour by @BBC . Bravi @RobRsvp @jemanners
Who's bossing the BBC? Hint: it's not the D-G

Perhaps Richard Sharp could facilitate a £800k loan to the @BBCSingers since he obviously likes helping people.

No one can match the BBC Singers. Axing them is an act of vandalism | Classical music | The Guardian theguardian.com/music/2023/m…
Right on the money as always. Also notably absent from comment is @michelledonelan but then she hasn't uttered the word "music" since being in post. Lamentable.
What is the point of trying to nurture new fans for classical music if, at the same time, we are killing classical music as a profession and an industry? thetimes.co.uk/article/f501b…
You thought #W1A was a parody. Anyone who has ever worked at the @BBC will tell you that the truth was too close. #monkeysincharge
