STOP PRESS: Please note that it is all change next year for the Ghosts schedule. As they say "due to matters beyond our control" we have had to change the date for the next choral concert.

The new date is Saturday, 7th June 2008 at Holy Trinity Church, High Street, Guildford, and not May 17 as advertised in the Re:Creation programme.

The programme is very exciting as I am proud to annouce that we are once again supporting our local composers. This time we will be singing music by Timothy Ball! The programme will look something like this:

Te Deum (Coronation) by William Walton (to be cofirmed)
Preces & Responses by Timothy Ball
Chichester Psalms by Leonard Bernstein
Some Songs for solo voice by Timothy Ball (to be confirmed)
Cantata by Timothy Ball.

Tim's music is very different to David's. I can't say it is more exciting or better but it certainly gives you a buzz! Fuller details will be published in the next Newsletter but please note that rehearsals will be on Mondays and Thursdays starting at the end of March/beginning of April. I look forward to seeing you at rehearsals; please let Richard know that you will be joining us.
