Music Worshop

On Saturday 22 May, we are pleased to welcome back Christine Gwynn and Frances Quintrell of Arbutus Music who will be running an all-day music workshop at Copped Hall.

These extremely accomplished musicians and voice coaches will be taking us through a variety of songs and pieces of music that we can all sing together. Everyone from novice to accomplished singer will enjoy themselves and an ability to read music is not essential. It is an ideal chance to discover your voice or just enjoy the pleasure of singing in a group of like-minded people. Both Christine and Frances have long and impressive musical pedigrees, but the reason they are so successful at running these courses is that’ll see a lot of happy faces!

The cost is only £25 per person, with refreshments provided mid-morning and afternoon. Lunch will be your choice. You can either bring a packed lunch or go for a meal at one of the local pubs. You will be provided with everything you need for the day, so all you need to bring is your enthusiasm.

Friends of the Copped Hall Trust will be allowed priority booking before Arbutus open it to their mailing list, so get in quickly. Naturally, this invitation is to Friends or friends of Friends. Call Frances Dennett (01992 610713) or email vicknope@hotmail.com. Finally, anyone wishing to join the Copped Hall Choir should particularly try to get along, because we got many of the choir from the last workshop that Arbutus ran for us.
