All music will be provided on the day. You will be expected to have learnt music made available in advance of the visit. No time in the rehearsal will be given to note-bashing this music. We will spend more time looking at music introduced on the day. We regret that copyright does not allow us to make all music available beforehand.
Cassocks and surplices will be provided on the day (if you are new, please send your approx height and build to Elizabeth at secretary@harsnettchoir.org).
Please wear quiet black shoes and black socks/tights as these might show under your cassock.
We do limit the number of people we can take to fit the stalls and maintain balance between the parts. Places are assigned on a first come first served basis. You will be informed if you have a space as soon as we know final numbers.. Please do not arrange non-refundable travel or accommodation until after this time. If you are unsure or need to know immediately, please contact Ed at md@harsnettchoir.org
We will not be arranging group accommodation for this visit.
Where available, online versions of sheet music are linked from the 'music' section above. Where available videos recordings are provided below. Ed will also send a Spotify playlist to those on the visit's WhatsApp group.
Please bear in mind that the sheet music and recordings linked from here may subtly differ to our own version on the day.
