The clocks have changed, the Spring has just about sprung and the days are getting longer (and we hope warmer and drier) - and our public performances for 2024 are underway.
Today (April 9th) a group of us sang to an appreciative audience in Christ Church, Worthing where we had been invited to contribute to their programme of lunchtime 'concerts'. Thank you to our hosts for this opportunity.
In a few days time we will be making a return visit to sing at Petworth House on Sunday April 14th, where the National Trust has asked us back to share our songs and entertain visitors during the final day of their Spring Festival. You can see and hear us in the courtyard by the house at 11.30am and at 2.30pm.
A week later on a group of us will be at beautiful Firle Place on Sunday April 21st, for another return visit, to sing and continue our celebration of the Spring at this year's Garden Show there. It's always a pleasure to sing in such lovely surroundings and we look forward to enjoying a glorious sunny day (fingers crossed)!
"Apple Blossom Day" will be happening the Sunday after (April 28th) in Stanmer Village, one of a number of seasonal events they hold there each year, and our group will be singing in the Orchard again at 1.15 and again at 4.00pm.
And there's more ..... on Sunday May 5th we will be up on the hills above Keymer at Oldland Mill for their Open Day. Another beautiful site and a splendidly renovated Sussex windmill to celebrate for it's own sake - AND another opportunity to enjoy singing and sharing our songs with all.
Then on Saturday May 18th, starting at about 10.30am, we are hoping to have an open-air Open Session to simply sing for ourselves outdoors for the simple pleasure of it, on Highdown Hill, west of Worthing. All weather permitting of course - so watch this space for any possible changes to plans.
Thereafter we look towards the rest of the summer and beyond - so keep an eye on our Diary Dates page and again - "Watch This Space"for more news and updates!
