Dear all

Next Monday we will be studying Domine Jesu Christe and Sanctus from Durufle's Requiem, Steven's piece, and the Lassus (pg 173) and Stravinsky (pg 323) motets.  The livestream link is: https://www.youtube.com/live/b5Ee4qcMIRw.

I also attach our poster for the concert in 2 formats.  Please print them off if you can and distribute them to your family and friends.

Tickets will be on sale at rehearsals from Monday 24 March.  Pre-booked prices are £18, (£20 on the door), under 18s £5.  Payment can be by card, cash or cheque.  Please see Althea or Tessa.  You can also book tickets online here: https://www.thornburychoralsociety.org.uk/dbpage.php?pg=book&id=164834.

The page we have set up recording the visit of members of the Finnish choir Kamarikuoro PiCCante:  https://www.thornburychoralsociety.org.uk/dbpage.php?pg=piccante
has been updated with more photos and with a lovely message from the choir.

Please note that there will be roadworks on the A38 and Alveston Hill from 31 March.  Margaret has kindly sent me the attached documents for your information.

Finally, St Mary's Church, Thornbury is hosting Nota Bene Vocal Ensemble this Sunday afternoon at 4pm as part of their monthly series of concerts.  There is free entry, and tea and cake afterwards.  There will be a retiring collection towards St Mary's Church Music Fund.

Best wishes,
