Our latest choral course, The Wedding at Cana, is in week 3 & we are so very lucky to be getting insights along the way from the Composer himself, Patrick Hawes. 🎶

Here’s a peek at Movement 4, in our All Choir rehearsal yesterday. Wait until the end for the exquisite voice of Lucy Cox.

The Wine Gave Out is another stand-out moment in our latest course, The Wedding at Cana by Patrick Hawes.

Here’s a little peek at our All Choir rehearsal yesterday, as our Musical Director @benenglandbem.bsky.social toasts the moment with a double water and of course, a sing through! 🎶

Able to catch up on Tutti, Week 2 The Wedding at Cana @choiroftheearth.com latest course last night, already in love with the peace as I think we all are, thanks as ever @benenglandbem.bsky.social for your teaching #singing

Would have liked to have rang something slightly more difficult last night but kept the treble steady for Bob Doubles and rang some Plain Hunt 6 #bellringing

Rang a touch of Bob Doubles for the service this morning, one small slip otherwise quite good #bellringers

But of a frustrating night, Grandsire was a disaster, although only my 2nd attempt with bobs, Bob Doubles was really good until I had a brain freeze at the end, Treble to Bob Minor slowly getting better, dust myself down and carry on #bellringing

Sound up for some truly beautiful music, as we count down to the Tuesday launch of our new course, The Wedding at Cana by Patrick Hawes.

One of the highlights is going to be learning its central movement, The Waters of Love. Patrick says it "reflects on the presence of the divine in human love".

A real privilege to have been part of this amazing performance #singing
It's always a true honour for @choiroftheearth.com to work with the Bergen Philharmonic, and this collaborative performance of Brahms' Requiem is just superb! At 18:30 BST @benenglandbem.bsky.social will conduct the recording premiere live. It's open to all so do join us!
