We were very sorry to hear of the passing of Sir Andrew Davis.
Our MD, dtconductor, who had worked with Davis, paid tribute:
'He was much loved and respected. He was also very funny! He coined the phrase 'you must keep one eye on the score and two eyes on the conductor'.'

Saturday! Used to be #TiswasDay (you need to be of an age to remember that!) but today it's #EldenRing day for us as we rehearsal for the @royalalberthall #concert next weekend.
From #Tallis and #VaughanWilliams last night to video games today, we really are a #VersatileChoir !

Always exciting stuff, the countdown is on until the 2024 BBC Proms are announced! #OneWeekToGo

We're looking fwd to singing Adolphus Hailstork's God be merciful at our concert on 18 May.

Rehearsal venue regular, Tiger, joined us again last night. It's difficult to concentrate on your score when you want to pet him as he walks past but it's hilarious to hear 'pss pss pss' from random spots around the choir when there's a quiet bit in the music! 😻🎵
