Sing with Gareth Malone workshop

About

Join Gareth Malone for an inspirational day singing Fauré's Requiem.

Broadcaster, choirmaster and Patron of Canterbury Choral Society, Gareth Malone OBE has helped galvanise the British choral scene through his award-winning BBC series, concert tours and recordings.

You will spend the day discovering Fauré's masterpiece with Gareth, accompanied by a leading organist. Participants will spend time on physicality, vocal technique, ensemble, listening, engaging with text and performance skills, and the workshop will conclude with a performance of the piece, where we'll be joined by some young soloists!

This Choral Workshop is open to adult singers and young people from age 12 upwards. You'll need some ability to read music but do not need to be vocally trained.

Registration:
9.00-9.50. The workshop will begin promptly at 10.00.

Music:
You will need to bring your own music. We'll be using the NOVELLO EDITION vocal score for Fauré Requiem (full choir version). New copies are available from www.scorestore.co.uk and other online sellers, and you can often get good second-hand copies through outlets such as ebay. Gareth will be happy to sign your copy in return for a donation to our chosen charity, Porchlight.
