Chants and Cantors day

posted 19 Mar 2012 14:32 by clarewestley@hotmail.com   [ updated 1 May 2012 17:12 ]

Saturday 12 May 2012 - 11 - 4pm at St Martins, Worcester.  £10 for RSCM members, £12 for non- members.

Frances Novillo (RSCM Regional Music Adviser for London & South East) will be leading a day workshop primarily for Cantors and those who lead music in worship, especially those without instruments. The day will also be used to introduce different styles of chants to enrich worship.

Cantors lead the congregation in sung prayer, and proclaim the Word of God in song. Some cantors are expert soloists, and others are inexperienced singers who have been given the responsibility of getting people singing in worship. Wherever you fit on the spectrum, come along to learn the skills, understand the ministry, enjoy suitable songs and liturgical music for cantors, including plainchant, short songs from the Iona and Taize communities and popular contemporary RC composers such as Bernadette Farrell.

Clergy, readers and lay ministers would benefit from this course as much as choristers and singers.

Frances Novillo is an experienced cantor in large-scale and small-scale worship, including the Papal Mass at Cofton Park, Greenbelt, Taize services, school and parish liturgies. She has a passion for getting people singing and will help you to do likewise.
