The year 2009 sees the choir
return to its core repertoire of Renaissance polyphony, in two concerts
which draw on the music closest to the hearts of its members and Director.
The highlight of 2008
was a performance of Monteverdi's Vespers with The Musical
and Amicable Society (www.amicables.co.uk) as instrumentalists.
In 2007, the choir performed in the
Winchester Festival, and achieved a long-standing ambition to sing Britten's
St Nicolas, with an orchestra specially-recruited children's choir.
The
choir celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2006 by performing the Bach Motets in
two concerts, both in the Cambridge Summer Music Festival, with guest accompanists John
Butt and Stephen Farr.
