Come and Sing Handel & Saul
The Elgar Chorale of Worcester invite you to join us at our ‘Come and Sing’ event on Saturday October 5th at RGS Worcester directed by Piers Maxim with accompanist Euordia Jordan.
Saul is an opera in all but name, containing some of the composer’s most vivid music, and one of the largest, most colourful orchestrations he ever wrote. It tells of the first King of Israel’s early admiration and later envy and hatred towards his successor, David, and David’s love for Saul’s son Jonathan, in moving arias and powerful choruses that chart a cathartic journey from triumph to tragedy.
Registration at 9.30am and the workshop begins in the lovely Alice Ottley Hall at 10am with a final performance ending at 5pm. Please bring your own lunch and join us in the refectory or the garden. Hot and cold drinks are provided in the breaks and there is a raffle too!
Tickets at £20 (students £10) to include music hire and drinks are available on line at www.elgarchorale.com or by emailing treasurer@elgarchorale.com and paying by cash or card at the door.
