A Russian Choral Music Workshop

High Street Methodist Church Hall, Harpenden, AL5 2RU.
Harpenden Choral Society warmly welcomes the return of composer, conductor and musicologist Peter Leech to lead a Russian Choral Music workshop in preparation for their March 21st concert. This workshop will follow the development of the Russian Orthodox choral tradition from the mid-18th century up to the Revolution of 1917 with a varied selection of delightful works by Bortynansky, Galuppi, Sarti, Lvov, Lvovsky, Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninov and others. This is a unique opportunity to try out choral singinging in a friendly and supportive environment, and to gain a real insight into singing repertoire from the rich and fascinating Russian choral tradition from an expert in the field.
Tickets cost £15 for adults; £5 for students, which includes scores and refreshments during the break. Non-members cordially welcome.
