See you on Tuesday! Choir starts again on Tuesday 2nd September, to prepare for our annual Mass of Thanksgiving a week later on Tuesday 9th as well as our October Mass. Christmas and our 'Parables' 2015 Concert..........
Now 7pm Sunday 14th June.
Unfortunately Antony had a prior commitment on the previously
announced date. Sorry!! Please adjust your
diaries accordingly. We shall be singing Lloyd Webber's The Good Samaritan
and Shütz's The Pharisee and the Publican and more. |

Molfino Luigi's O Sacram Convivium
A rather lovely,
short, unaccompanied setting, that is free to print. It comes with
a full score 'rendition' and individual SATB rehearsal aids for you to
sing along to. See
HERE. Please note that the (electronic) individual rehearsal lines come with
built-in vibrato and swoops which we won't reproduce should we
perform it - sorry Sopranos!! Communion at the Easter Vigil,
perhaps? |
September's Quiz Question
Which, if any, of the
following are Liturgically required of the congregation at Mass on Sundays at St.
Bart's: From our Web site I have tried over the years to maintain a list of people who, however briefly, have been members of the Choir. You can view it HERE. Is there anyone you can think of that I might have missed? Somewhat embarrassingly I looked at the list recently and found a couple of people who I have failed to remember each year in the Bidding Prayers at our annual Mass of Thanksgiving. This has been rectified for the 9th September and the future. Prayers, please..... George Norton, Anne Mitra, Mary & Frank Elliott, Maria Leszczynska & Family. I ask also for Special prayers, please, for a Choir member's Private Intention. |
For your coffee breaks The August edition of ‘Chorister’, the quarterly newsletter from British Choirs on the Net, is now available online HERE. A very short Pathe news clip from 1962, with a delightful commentary that is very much 'of its time'! The Police Consort give a very nice rendition of the Byrd Mass for Five Voices HERE. Richard Silver's stunning photography - look especially at 'Vertical Churches' (under 'Portfolios') and click on the resulting pics for larger images - amazing!! How's your Japanese?! Kitson's arrangement of Jesu, grant me this I pray (it starts about 15 seconds in). Father Tom's first weekend at Petts Wood HERE. And finally, a rather mesmeric piece of time-lapse photography, taken (perhaps) from up the Shard HERE.
