The Guild of St Bride begins its celebrations of 650 years since foundation this Sunday with a newly commissioned anthem in praise of St Bride – "A Voice for our Age" – from Helen Neeves (formerly #StBridesChoir, now BBC Singer).
Vaughan Williams's beautiful 'Serenade to Music' telling of lovers sitting under the stars, enchanted by the music of the spheres at #ChoralEvensong. Plus a chance to bid adieu to #StBridesChoir member, Bob Bryan.
#ChoralEvensong this Sunday is the last chance to hear the glorious tenor voice of Thomas Herford before he leaves the choir after 17 years.
Tom's beautiful singing will be sorely missed, as will his warm and generous friendship to all at St Bride's, especially his #stbrideschoir colleagues.
Perfect music for a moment of calm reflection at #ChoralEvensong this week – Byrd's "Short Evening Service" then a #SermoninMusic of Gibbons' intimate anthem "See, see the Word is incarnate" & Willaert's beautifully woven polyphonic "Victimae paschali laudes".
#stbrideschoir
Glorious soprano singing awaits this Friday from longest-serving #StBridesChoir member – Claire Seaton – and her friend & former choir colleague – Helen Neeves (now w/ the illustrious #BBCSingers) – accompanied by the renowned Richard Pearce.
