Diaries out – The Sixteen have announced dates for their 2014 Choral Pilgrimage concerts. They’re back to their regular October slot in Durham Cathedral – they’ll be here on Friday 24 October. Booking opens in January and I’ll update my event listing as soon as I have the information.
It’s another great programme with music by Tudor composers John Sheppard, Richard Davy and William Mundy: the Sixteen have clearly decided to get in ahead of what is assumed to be the 500th anniversary of Sheppard’s birth in 1515.
If you fancy having a go at singing some of the music on the programme yourself, book a place on their choral workshop the following day in Edinburgh. I’ll be singing Sheppard in 2015 with Durham Singers (VERY excited about this), so I’ll definitely be going.
