Come & Sing Messiah

Bradford Festival Choral Society

Embrace the thrill of choir in our vocal workshop.  In an informal and relaxed atmosphere, our BFCS Musical Director Thomas Leech, will take us through a selection from Handel's Messiah.  Sing along with our friendly and supportive choir!

Some music-reading ability and a little choral experience will help you get the most out of the day.
We will be using the Watkins Shaw (Novello) edition of the music; music hire is included but let us know when you are booking if you will bring your own.

Do book your friends and family in for our informal performance at 6pm - we will sing better with an audience!

There is no dress code.

10am Registration & Coffee/Tea
10:30am  Vocal Warm Up
