Such sad news. Sir Andrew Davis was a passionate advocate of choral singing and a joy to work with.

Fantastic to hear my music brought to life by the awesome
BBC Singers directed by Graham Ross. Last few tickets remaining for this evening’s concert. It’s a great programme including Roderick Williams and culminating with Parry’s stunning Songs of Farewell. cadoganhall.com/whats-on/chora…
