News - summer 2008  Double header pairs CML with Wimbledon boys and polished Finns
The month of June saw Collegium Musicum of London deliver a varied programme of English pastoral music in Wimbledon and Clerkenwell. The first concert, at Emmanuel Church, Wimbledon, saw CML join forces with the Willington School Choristers, directed by Scott Inglis-Kidger, in a programme of choral music by English favourites Parry, Elgar, Finzi and Vaughan-Williams, as well as specially commissioned peces for the boys' ensemble. T The substantial audience turnout, particularly in Wimbledon - where soprano Liz Aram organised the event - has encouraged the choir to seek similar venues with which members have a local connection. For both concerts, CML was conducted by Peter Owens. New members needed! The choir is at present on the look-out for new members - particularly altos and basses! And for those who feel ambitious, we have opportunities for soloists in all sections. Interested in joining the choir? Click here for details of our audition process, or email the choir here.
Collegium Musicum of London is also available for hire – either to give a concert as part of a festival, to provide one-off concert programmes, or to sing for functions. |
