Benedict Biscop Gregorian Choir
WORKSHOPS
Our workshops are open to all – there is no audition. We meet in different places in the North East of England.
Join in for the pleasure of singing with others and exploring music still vibrant after more than a thousand years.
To sing in performances you must join in workshops, but it is fine to be a workshop participant without performing with us.
If plainsong is new to you, you could join in an EXPLORING PLAINSONG workshop.
Workshops in 2011:
EXPLORING PLAINSONG
a taste of the variety of medieval chant – from an early-morning call to hymns for all, from music to bond communities to display for soloists. Whether you want just a one-off taster or would like to join the Choir, this is a good place to start.
