SINGING WORKSHOP. 4.30pm to 6.30pm

THE CONCERT: SONGS OF RETURNING. – 8pm to 9pm

Be immersed in song at this in-the-round concert with the Helen Chadwick Group. Helen has created site-specific choral events for the Royal Opera House, Salisbury Cathedral and Greenwich Festival, and now brings SONGS OF RETURNING to Calstock, Stroud, Shaftesbury, Exeter, Buckfastleigh and Frome: songs with fabulous harmonies, songs to uplift the spirit, songs to move the soul, songs to wake us up, songs to dream to and songs that are joyous and funny, with Clara Atkins, Helen Porter, Zara Ramm, Emily Robyn and Helen Chadwick. 

Clara and Emily are Choir leaders and singers who have been recording a new album with Chadwick. We’ll be performing some of that new material. Emily is also a composer. Zara is an actor singer who has performed song theatre shows with Chadwick (Songs for the Way Home) and who lives in Stroud. Helen Porter is a composer, pianist, singer and singing coach who has done workshops in Stroud. The Helens have collaborated on four shows including Truth and Light Shining at the National Theatre.
