NFC Singing Course & Concert January 2025

25th January - 26th January

Come and be part of an amazing choral workshop and concert!

Course: Sat 25th & Sun 26th January 2025
NTU Clifton NG11 8NS

Concert: Saturday 1st February 2025
Albert Hall, Nottingham NG1 5AA

Come and sing Mozart’s greatest musical present to his wife, the C Minor Mass, a beautiful solemn mass which featured solos just for her, as well as an assortment of music inspired by love from composers Weir, Durufle, Tallis and Ferrario.

Accompanied by a full professional orchestra kicking us off with DeliusWalk to the Paradise Garden, set your sights on romance and your ears on wedding bells for a weekend of blissful music making.

Music scores and rehearsal tracks will be sent out approximately 6 weeks before the course weekend. There are also optional sectional rehearsals in early January to help you learn the notes.

Schedule times subject to change

We are aware that the “Come and Sing with John Rutter” event at the concert hall clashes with our rehearsal on Sunday 26 January. We are fortunate to live in such a culturally vibrant city, and it’s not always easy to avoid these scheduling overlaps! If you are attending the John Rutter event, we would be more than happy for you to still join our January NFC course and skip the rehearsal on the 26th. With the rehearsal aids we provide, sectional rehearsals, and additional rehearsals on 25 January and the concert day, you will still have plenty of time to feel fully prepared for the performance.
