In early December, some members of the choir went singing as part of our outreach programme.

On Sunday a group of the choir supported the Chaplaincy at Frimley Park Hospital by providing music and singing at the Memorial Service in the hospital.

On Tuesday a group sang carols at Jake’s Playbarn in Sandhurst in support of The Knights Foundation. This local charity provides support and equipment to disabled, deprived or seriously ill children and their families.

Music for Penance and Passiontide

Surrey Heath Singers gave a delightful concert on Saturday evening, April 1, 2023, at St Peter’s Church in Frimley.

The concert opened with a performance of William Byrd’s Ave Verum Corpus. This was followed by Byrd’s Mass for 4 Voices. This beautiful piece of Renaissance polyphony was composed in a time of religious turmoil in England.

The second half featured John Stainer’s The Crucifixion. This is a powerful and moving work, and the Surrey Heath Singers did a wonderful job of bringing it to life. The choir sang with precision and clarity, and the soloists were all excellent.

Here are some reviews from audience members:

• “The Surrey Heath Singers were simply amazing! They sang with such passion and precision, and the music was beautiful. I highly recommend seeing them perform.”
  
• “The Surrey Heath Singers gave a wonderful performance of The Crucifixion. The choir sang with such emotion, and the soloists were all excellent. It was a truly moving experience.”
