Autumn Timeline Choir rehearsals resume on Tuesday 18th (Surrey) and Thursday 27th (Cambridge) September. As always, new members are most welcome to come and join us for the new term. This autumn and winter season sees a focus on medieval and renaissance Christmas songs in Cambridge, festive folk songs collected by Lucy Broadwood in Surrey and a look into our 2019 programme ‘Melodic Dissent’, celebrating music as a powerful weapon in the perennial fight against cruelty and injustice, from as early as the Middle Ages and including folk songs from the fens, love songs to trees from Sussex and songs of protest against land enclosure by the poet John Clare.
Timeline Choir is a community singing group with a difference: although it is open to all, with no auditions and no requirement for members to be able to read music, the choir is set apart by its specially-arranged and artistically ambitious repertoire, which celebrates the heritage of the local area, from Anglo-Saxon times to the present day.
Cambridge Timeline Choir begins with an open session on Thursday 27th September, 7:30pm, at the St. Barnabas Centre on Mill Road. If you love to sing then come along and try out some beautiful old music… arranged in new ways! You can email Stef to sign up (Cambridge only) or read more here.
