Programme Note
Choir of the Earth is a global online choir that has welcomed thousands of amateur singers from over 35 countries to our digital choral courses.
In 2022/23, for the first time ever, we are taking our choir room on the road with a UK and Ireland tour - come and sing with us a selection of choruses from Messiah by George Frideric Handel!
We would love absolutely everybody to join us, whether or not you have ever sung with us, or even sung in a choir!
When you sign up, you will receive all the resources you need to learn/revise and practise your part, note-by-note, including online overview sessions for each voice part and full choir the week before the event, where you can meet other attendees in the live text chat.
On the day of the event our award-winning conductor, Ben England BEM, will lead everyone in workshops to rehearse a selection of choruses, with his characteristic charm, fun and inspirational musical direction. Then he will conduct us in an unforgettable early evening concert performance.
We hope to welcome friends old and new to join us for a day of singing and fun... and you never know who might pop by to wish us well!
