Singers invited to Tudor workshop

1:41pm Thursday 18th September 2008

SINGERS with a reasonable standard of sight-reading are invited to take part in an all-day workshop with a unique theme in Tarrington on Saturday, October 4.

Dr Stephen Rice, director of the award-winning Brabant Ensemble, will be bringing music by Byrd and Sheppard written in the late 16th and early 17th century for a family living at Chirk Castle near Wrexham, but which has lain undiscovered since then.

Singers not wishing to miss the opportunity to sing music from the Chirk Castle Part-books can call Lydia Wells, of the Border Marches Early Music Forum, on 01544 319138.
