After initial rehearsals with the RWCMD Vocal Consort for the approaching 'Magic of San Marco' concert on March 23rd, we are about to start rehearsals with players. Gabrieli's Exultet Jam Angelica in 16 parts (complete with sackbutt consort) is going to be a cracker! We'll be rehearsing Händel's short opera The Choice of Hercules concurrently, so there's plenty to keep us busy leading up to Easter. The Consort's Christmas concert in the new RWCMD Dora Stoutzker Hall was quite full, so book early ... guest artists include Chordophony Lute Ensemble directed by Lynda Sayce, and renowned cornettist Richard Thomas.
