Do you want to sing some lush Spanish renaissance choral music in a concert in November, alongside the awesome @hismajsagbutts? Of course you do! We have space for a 2nd alto and tenor who is in reach of SW London and can navigate a score, if this is you please drop us a line!
If you enjoy high-standard amateur singing, and particularly enjoy renaissance choral music, we have vacancies for a new second alto and a tenor! If you're interested please visit our website for more details, or send us a message: https://t.co/xe2VJaTrlV

This is the opening of #Monteverdi Vespers of 1610 (Domine ad adiuvandum me festina / O Lord, make haste to help me) which is one of the greatest moments in Italian music by that great son of Northern Italy Claudio Monteverdi.
