The Linsdale Singers from Leighton Buzzard
The Linsdale Singers is a choir of around 30 voices. Specialising in singing unaccompanied choral music the Choir also performs works that are accompanied by piano/organ or a chamber orchestra. This established choir enjoys a reputation for high quality choral singing in the Leighton Buzzard and Linslade area of Bedfordshire, but their reputation also spreads far beyond this area as they have spent many successful weekends singing in British cathedrals and other churches.
Interested in joining? Have some experience of choral singing? We currently have vacancies for altos, tenors and basses – select About > Joining for further information. If you are aged 16–20 contact us about becoming a choral scholar (any voice part).
and Choral Evensong
At 4pm the Singers will give a short concert of light summery music and this will be followed by tea & cakes kindly provided by St Michael's Church (donations invited). Then at 6pm the Choir will sing a full Choral Evensong service (which of course will be free to attend).
The main item in the concert will be 'Songs and Sonnets of Shakespeare' – George Shearing's jazzy settings of words from Shakespeare.
The Evensong music will include George Dyson's setting of the Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis in D and Eleanor Daley's beautiful anthem 'Upon your heart'.
