‘For Motets and musick of piety and devotion, as well as for the honour of our Nation, as the merit of the man, I prefer above all our Phoenix M[aster] William Byrd, whom in that kind, I know not whether any may equall.' Henry Peacham 1622
Guildford Chamber Choir is running a workshop on the music of William Byrd on Saturday 24th November in St Mary's Church, Quarry Street - the oldest building in Guildford, dating from before the Norman conquest.
Registration will be from 1.15 pm and we will rehearse from 1.30 till 5.45 with a couple of tea breaks. There will then be a slightly longer break with refreshments supplied by the choir before a concert at 7 pm which will last about an hour. The cost is £15 for singers, which covers all music and refreshments, and audience members are welcome for the concert (tickets at £5). The workshop will be led by our Principal Conductor, Steven Grahl, Director of Music at St Marylebone Parish Church and Assistant Organist at New College, Oxford.
