HSCS

With regret, today we have cancelled our 18 December Christmas concert at St Thomas’s church. Tickets will be refunded. We wish you all a happy and safe Christmas and hope to see you in 2022.

Our next concert is on 13 Nov: tickets available now!

Tim Hooper, Shenfield & Hutton Choral Soc MD, said to last night’s audience at St Thomas’s, “you will have to excuse me, I have not done this for a while.” Not that anyone noticed, as the choir and the musicians gave an beautiful performance. The return of choral music a pure joy

Thanks to all who participated in or attended our concert last night: it was great to be back!

Next Saturday, 24th - 7.30 pm at St Thomas’s church - tickets available at the door, but payment by card only, please. Look forward to seeing you!

Tickets available! #letsgetsinging!

Fabulous dancing by @balletcentral @QueensTheatreH tonight! We’ve missed you!

"There’s been no evidence to show that singing indoors is more dangerous now than it was a few weeks ago." We agree with @Voicedoctor_uk speaking on @BBCRadio4 this morning - @DCMS need to show us the science.

PLEASE sign up if you care about us getting back to live rehearsals and concerts.  Allow non-professional singing in groups of more than six indoors - Petitions (parliament.uk)

To all UK choral conductors, composers, accompanists, and those whose livelihoods depend on amateur choral singing. Please consider doing this letter to Oliver Dowden. Please share! davidlawrencemusic.com/letter-to-dcms

On the National #DayofReflection we remember all those who have lost their lives during the pandemic. Condolences to all who have lost a loved one: we are thinking of you today.

@RobertIanScott In case you’ve nit seen this.

A message from Tom: "I continue to be offered lots of lovely items. I really do have everything I need but others are struggling due to Covid-19 so, rather than giving to me, please look to donate these generous offers to a local care home or someone in your community. Thank you”

We regret to announce that our 9 May concert has been cancelled. Further news will follow once plans for future concerts have been reviewed.

Rehearsals start tonight for our next concert when we’ll perform Vaughan Williams’ epic Sea Symphony. Save the date - 9 May in Chelmsford Cathedral.

Great evening at our Soirée last night with the fabulous @JamesSSchouten as our guest soloist and our Jazz Trio on top form! Thanks to them, our audience and our caterers.
