Body of Song event at Sage Gateshead on Sunday 9th November

As you know we are singing on the concourse of The Sage as part of this event on 9th November.

I can confirm that we have been given the first slot after the 2 minutes silence so are scheduled to sing between 11.02 and 11.30am.

I can imagine we will meet about 10.20am,  ready to start warming up at 10.30am and then get into position before 11.00am, but will confirm exact times and where to meet nearer the time.

Also, as a perk of taking part:
  you can take advantage of a special 2-4-1 ticket offer on tickets for the Body of Song Concert in Hall 1 which follows your performances, at 4pm.  Tickets are only £5 anyway, so you can see the concert for just £2.50 each with this offer!  The concert features 5 choirs - Chorus of Royal Northern Sinfonia, Quay Voices, Human Music, Custom Voices and Voices of Hope, alongside a chamber ensemble from Royal Northern Sinfonia, and compere Sir Thomas Allen.

Useful website - from Julie


I thought Chamber Choir might find this website useful. It was recommended by The Sixteen for practising ahead of their forthcoming workshop. There's a great Facebook Group too. Loads of useful stuff.

Sage Gateshead 10th Birthday Celebrations - 20th December - an invitation for SGCC to sing

As part of the Sage Gateshead 10th birthday celebrations, the adult and silver programmes have been given the 20th December '14 as a slot for putting on music.  
We are one of the groups/choirs who have been invited to sing on the concourse that day. At the moment we don't have details of times etc but it would be great if we could find out who would be able to sing.
So please could you reply to this message and let us know if you can make it on the 20th December.  Thank you
SGCC Champs
