To find out more about Bach, join award-winning musical educator & conductor Ben England BEM, for a special exploration of Bach’s choral masterpieces, in Bach: The Fifth Evangelist.
Surely it’s what Bach would’ve wanted on one of his birthdays? 😉
Just head here: choirlibrary.com/courses/bach...
2 birthdays, 1 legend! 🎶 It's Bach’s birthday, but he has 2 dates shared in celebration - March 21 & 31. Bach’s birth was first recorded using the Julian calendar but at the time of his death most of Europe used the Gregorian one, so his birthday jumped by 10 days. We’ll happily celebrate on both! 🎉
Finished the teaching for @choiroftheearth.com Bach Cantatas course now for the recordings #singing

Jill describes herself as an inexperienced singer. Dave is a highly experienced chorister, so it was great to get their different perspectives about Choir of the Earth recently. Dave sings in a face to face choir too, as many of our choristers do. Jill explains why she won’t! 😉
#TestimonialTuesday
So much fun!! Thanks everyone who came and supported our big Hallelujah sing on Saturday 😊
This was a celebration of Handel’s enduring legacy, his support for The Foundling Museum & the extraordinary power of collective music-making. There were special in-museum events & a livestream.
A heartfelt thanks to everyone who sang & supported & to the Foundling Museum for their incredible work
