This week our choir has been learning The Waters of Love. It's achingly beautiful, and a privilege to learn Patrick Hawes work with @benenglandbem.bsky.social at the helm. 🎶
“The waters of love, both human and divine, when mingled create the most beautiful wine”.

No Santa “Ho ho ho’s” for us just yet, but we are YO ho ho-ing our way into the week with a fun warm up! 🎶
Our Musical Director Ben, lives in Bristol... the home of the pirate voice (Blackbeard was from there you know!) & as Ben says, it’s amazing what the voice can do when you distract the brain

Our latest choral course, The Wedding at Cana, is in week 3 & we are so very lucky to be getting insights along the way from the Composer himself, Patrick Hawes. 🎶
Here’s a peek at Movement 4, in our All Choir rehearsal yesterday. Wait until the end for the exquisite voice of Lucy Cox.

The Wine Gave Out is another stand-out moment in our latest course, The Wedding at Cana by Patrick Hawes.
Here’s a little peek at our All Choir rehearsal yesterday, as our Musical Director @benenglandbem.bsky.social toasts the moment with a double water and of course, a sing through! 🎶

But of a frustrating night, Grandsire was a disaster, although only my 2nd attempt with bobs, Bob Doubles was really good until I had a brain freeze at the end, Treble to Bob Minor slowly getting better, dust myself down and carry on #bellringing
