    Description: Come and Sing: Vivaldi Gloria
    On Novemver 13th Monmouth Choral Society will be hosting a
     
    Free Come and Sing Workshop
    of
    Vivaldi's Gloria
    at
    St Mary's Priory Church, Monmouth.

    Composed for his talented pupils at an orphanage in Venice, Vivaldi's Gloria is by turns bright and breezy, plaintive and prayerful, energetic and vivacious, but still conveys something of the grandeur of St Mark's Basilica and the God
    whose worship takes place there. It is also a great sing and guaranteed to raise our spirits along with our voices.

    We shall be working from the New Novello version of Vivaldi Gloria (ISBN 9780711991224).

    Please "buy" free tickets from the link above so we can more easily comply with Covid Track & Trace requirements.
    If you would like to borrow a score please indicate when you book.
     
    Please allow plenty of time to register and find your seat. Registration will open at 9.30am If you find yourself in a queue, please remember to social distance.

    As you enter, go to the registration desk to find your name, confirm your contact details and collect a score if you need one. We will also be taking donations for the Come and Sing. Cash or card welcome!

    To Reduce the Risk of Catching Covid Please do NOT attend if you feel unwell, or are experiencing any Covid symptoms, or have tested positive in the past 14 days.

    We ask you to be double vaccinated OR to do a negative lateral flow test before arriving (even if you feel 100% well).

     

    Masks:

    ? Unless exempt, you will need to wear a mask while moving around inside the church.
    ? You can remove your mask while singing, but we would strongly encourage you to stay masked because of increased risk of aerosol transmission of the virus. You will be able to borrow a ‘singer’s insert’ (a little silicon frame that holds the mask away from your face), which we use in rehearsals and find very helpful.
    ? If you are singing without a mask, stewards will guide you to positions at the front of the choir.

    We will also socially distance throughout the event and you’ll see pews marked with areas not to sit.
    If you test positive for Covid after the event, please email chair@monmouthchoralsociety.co.uk. There will be a short break during the morning. The toilets are located in the Priory.

    The Come and Sing should run from 10am to12.30pm. If you have anyone who wants to listen to the final run through, please tell them to arrive about noon.

    If you’ve enjoyed yourself, do join the choir! Our membership secretary will be there to answer any questions and help sign you up.
