Members' Library
The Library is split into two sections. The first section contains information and details about forthcoming events planned either as part of the choir's normal season or by other organisations/choirs in which members of the choir are welcome to take part. Where events are organised by third parties, basic details are given but further information must be obtained from the relevant organisers who hold final responsibility for their respective events. Where known, links to websites containing details about these events will be provided.
The second section contains copies of documents relating to the choir's business and operation like past newsletters. It also has some photos of the choir in action and a few silly items for fun.
Comments on the contents of this library are welcome (from both members and non-members). Please e-mail them to The Boss (or send them by snail mail) who will take every comment into consideration.

If you would like to find out more about the excellent annual Cranleigh Choral Week (CCW) course based at Cranleigh School in Surrey every summer then click here or on the logo to the left. Previously held in Harrogate, this course transferred to the splendid facilities of Cranleigh School in 2007. It usually takes place during the third week of August or thereabouts - check the website for details - and consists of a mix of chamber choir music during the week, culminating in the performance of one or more major works at the end of the course, most often in Guildford Cathedral. There are several different options for participating in the course and discounted rates are available in some circumstances. See the website for full details by clicking on the logo to the left. For those who don't wish to travel so far south then an alternative can be found back in Harrogate. The Harrogate Festival Choral Course comes with a musical staff well experienced in working with singers of all abilities and all ages so you can be assured of a warm welcome and lots of fun. Find out more about the course which usually takes place at the end of August by clicking here or on the logo. ![]()
For another very good and highly recommended short course for those preferring a smaller chamber choir then maybe the ones organised by Helen Wills of Helicon Arts might be for you. Helen has run courses in the UK, France, Italy, Spain and Hungary. Take it from a few of us who have been in previous years, there's a lot of music to get through (mostly a cappella) and the going can get tough but it's very rewarding! If you would like to find out more about the course and details of previous courses then click here or on the logo to the left.
