SCORES – we ask singers to PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN MUSIC – You need the Peters score for the Brahms, which we are singing in German; the Novello score for the Dvorak. Our singers derive most benefit from the day if they get to know the piece and their part beforehand.
Choral Line produce practice CDs and supply scores (www.choraline.com) as do Blackwell’s Music Shop.

GETTING HERE: The Workshop will take place at The Wesley Memorial Church, New Inn Hall Street, Oxford, OX1 2DH – see Google street maps. For singers coming from out of town, parking nearby is not easy and we would recommend using the Park and Ride facility. Singers based in Oxford are strongly advised to come either on foot, or by bicycle or on public transport.

REFRESHMENTS: There are many cafes and restaurants nearby where singers can find something to eat at lunchtime; information about these will be available on the day for those who come from afar.

Any queries please telephone 01865 250440, or email enquiries.oxfordorpheus@gmail.com
