About
York Early Music Christmas Festival Event 2
Join us for a day of laughter and learning with Rory McCleery, Artistic Director of The Marian Consort.
Rory will be our guide for a journey into music by members of the Bach family, Schutz and Palestrina, exploring the web of connections that exist across centuries and national borders, and reflecting his concert later on in the festival.
Our workshop is open to all and is for SATB singers, although some prior choral experience and a familiarity with reading sheet music is recommended. Friends & family are invited to an informal concert performance at 4pm.
Music will be available online from October’
