A new season of singing and performing with The English Arts Chorale and Orchestra is announced. Members have the opportunity to sing ten major choral works in concerts and workshops. In addition, the chorale will tour Italy next spring, in the beautiful Umbria region. If you want to join us in this fun and ambitious programme,
get in touch today. Open workshops are a great way to discover what it is like to sing under the expertise of conductor Leslie Olive. In November, we spend the day singing Verdi’s Requiem, and in February, it’s Mozart.
