As you are probably gathering live shows are no longer on a weekly basis. I will inform you via this blog when there is a show coming up.
Sorry to listeners who are following and hoping for further shows - I'm sure there will be repeated shows as and when the producers play them from the archives.

Show 104 - 18th December 2012
This week there is a live show and I will continue to keep listeners up-to-date via this blog when I have a show worthy of your attention.
Choral Insight Christmas 2012 Edition
South Devon Choir's rehearsal is where we are this week as they practice for their Christmas concert, a collection of unusual texts some 12th century like Wolcum Yule and That Youge Childe through Shakespeare up to more familiar words like I Saw Three Ships set to music by Benjamin Britten, Geoffrey Bush and Gordon Jacob, the final work was Christmas Fantasia by Vaughan-Williams which sets his famous "The Truth Sent From Above" with more familiar carols to some wonderful music - we hear bits from Britten and Bush and all of the Jacob and Vaughan-Williams, some great solo work accompanied by Grand Piano and Organ.
Hope you will listen in

Show 103 - Tuesday 4th December
This week the show is about the Stanborough Choruses rehearsal for their vocal Festival on 3rd November in Kingsbridge. It listens in as they work through Vivaldi Gloria and Handel Messiah. A very able ensemble of players and soloists.

Show 102 - 2pm Tuesday late October 2012
Sorry about the delay but am unable to do a show again this week so will keep anyone interested up-to-date via this blog
We start back with the Buckfast Big Sing at the end of August, when some 200 singers come together for 1 day, under the direction of Christopher Fletcher. This year they were singing Faure's Requiem and some well known items by other composers, Haydn, Mendelssohn etc. A diferent way of learning from the weekly rehearsals as there only the one day to get it together.
hope you will listen in when it eventually goes out
