For the last 7 years, under the title “Summer Songbook” weekend workshops are given in all facets of choral work. The aim is to bring lovers of music and song together and blend and share their talents. In the presence of amazing local very talented tutors Marie O’ Dwyer and Joanne Walsh, accompanied by the extraordinary Annabel Adams, we have succeeded in achieving this from once the 1st note is sung on Friday evening to the showcase concert of our achievements on Sunday evening. Our amazing tutors put their unique stamp on the musical content which is inspirational and a joy to sing and listen to. An extra dimension to the workshops is yoga teacher Helen Jeffers who will introduce relaxation and movement sessions during the weekend.
