The Barnby Choir Singing Day is an annual event to which we invite all interested singers from across the region to sing through and perform with us a less familiar piece of choral music under the guidance of a guest conductor. The day is always immensely enjoyable and includes refreshments and a book-stall to enjoy in the breaks.
For some years now, we have had the privilege of welcoming the ebullient and talented Keith Orrell, Musical Director of the William Byrd Singers and the Liverpool Welsh Choral, to lead our Singing Day. Keith has ably taken us through a wide variety of works, such as Will Todd’s Mass in Blue, Rachmaninov’s Vespers, Purcell’s Dido and Aeneas, and two of Keith’s own compositions, namely Exsultet and The Sacrifice.
