Programme for 2009-10

Monteverdi

The main pillars of the programme are two monumental settings of the Vespers. In November we performed Rachmaninov's Vespers in St Barnabas Cathedral, Nottingham, austerely beautiful music for the Russian Orthodox 'All-night Vigil'.

In contrast, Monteverdi's magnificent Vespers of 1610, in its 400th anniversary year, formed the basis of January's 'Come and Sing/Play' event and will be performed in Southwell Minster on the 20th March.

Light Night

And on Friday 12 February we'll be taking part in Nottingham's 'Light Night 2010', singing in the
Arcade in Exchange Buildings
(Council House).

About the Sinfonia Chorale

The Sinfonia Chorale is recognised as one of the leading small choirs in the East Midlands.

The choir was formed in 1966 as the English Sinfonia Chorale, and since 1991 Richard Roddis has been its Director. In that time it has enhanced its reputation for fine, expressive and exciting choral singing, and for ambitious and innovative programming. Several concerts are given every year in Nottingham and the East Midlands.

The choir has around forty members including professional musicians and amateur instrumentalists.
