Every year CBS welcomes singers from across the North (they come from as far afield as Newcastle and Aberystwyth!) to work on a major choral piece for a day, followed by an informal performance.

This year we are greatly looking forward to diving into Poulenc’s Gloria on Saturday 27th January. Rhythmic, intensely melodic and full of quirky harmonies, this is a work that presents just the right level of challenge but also many rewards.

Our conductor, Martin Bussey, is looking forward to leading everyone through the challenges of this beautiful and uplifting work, accompanied at the keyboard by Catherine Barnett.

The workshop starts at 1.00 pm  and your ticket will include hire of the score, together with the legendary CBS tea and cake refreshments betwen workshop and concert. The Gloria  will be performed by workshop members at approximately 4.30 pm and audience tickets at £5 are available for the concert.

Venue:
St Mary’s Creative Space,
