The South London Singers concert will feature well-known music that was written originally for films, musicals, opera and operetta sung by our four-part chorus.
Join the South London Singers and conductor Christopher Braime for an evening of light choral music. One of the joys of being a choral singer (and hopefully also for those listening in the audience!) is the wide range of music available, not just that written originally for religious settings and performance by mixed choirs but also folk songs of often uncertain origin and the music written specially for films, musicals, opera and operetta. As with many choral groups, the South London Singers normally sing music in four voice parts. In the various categories of music that we will sing in this last concert of this season, we are fortunate that many arrangements are available which take these solos, arias and choruses and ‘tweak’ them gently to enable the (often well-known) favourite melodies to be sung by groups like us.
On this occasion we will include a feast of choral suites developed from films such as ‘Oliver’ and ‘The Sound of Music’. The concert will feature favourites of stage and screen, including opera choruses from Madama Butterfly, Carmen, Il Trovatore and more, as well as highlights from the West End. There's something for everyone to enjoy! The singing will be accompanied by Jack Stone on piano.
There will be a short interval during which drinks will be available.
