Evensong for Palm Sunday (Round Byrd)
The RSCM accepts no responsibility or liability for any aspect of events publicised through this events process. All responsibility and liability is the sole responsibility of the event organiser(s).
'Round Byrd' is the occasional choir for St Mary's Ross (which also has two full time ones). It sings once a term, usually on Saturday for an evensong at 17:00 preceded by a rehearsal from 14:15. We specialise in English Choral music of the 16th and 17th Centuries. Membership is large in number and the area covered by members is also large. Singers come to the rehearsal having given as much preparation as they individually need, ready to polish the performance. Music provided and no charge. Great fun and a good standard. We also run a 'Come, Sing & Sup' termly programme where the music is less demanding and there is no expectation to prepare the notes in advance. Music this time is: Gibbons: Hosannah to the Son of David, Wood in F, Palestrina: Pueri Hebraeorum (hymns and psalm). Also Saturday 7 June – Orlando Gibbons (anniversary) Evensong (Second Service and See, see the Word is incarnate).
