Safari Evensong
Woburn, Eversholt and Milton Bryan Churches
Sunday 6th July 2008, 14:30 to 17:30
What pleasanter way to spend a summer Sunday afternoon than to
have the rare opportunity to sing in three architecturally fine churches - Woburn,
Eversholt (both in John Betjeman's guide) and Milton Bryan. We shall assemble at St Mary's,
Woburn (public car park opposite) at 2.30 and rehearse briefly, then move round to each
village in turn (sharing cars) singing parts of Evensong, including a new Malcolm Archer
anthem. Refreshments will be provided and there will be time for viewing the churches and,
for organists, an opportunity to play Woburn's fine instrument.
2008 Diocesan Choirs Festival
St Albans Abbey
Saturday May 17th 2008
It's once again time to start thinking about the Royal School of Church Music Diocesan Choirs Festival. This event is held biennially - using the 'even years' - and the next one will take place on Saturday May 17th 2008; once again using St Albans Abbey as the venue and under the capable baton of Andrew Lucas. The timing for the day will be from 1:45 p.m. to roughly 6:15 p.m.
