Many thanks to an enthusiastic audience on Friday, who came to our performance 'The Agony and the Ecstasy' at St Michael's church in Hernhill. Situated in a picturesque Kentish village, amongst rolling orchards and fields, the ancient church on the village green rang to the sound of choral music celebrating sacred and secular love, including Pergolesi's Stabat Mater for which we were joined by members of the String Sinfonia. A gorgeous summer evening filled with gorgeous choral music! The evening raised almost £500 towards the church's restoration fund - thank you to everyone who made a donation. But it doesn't stop there; on Tuesday 29 May, we'll be singing Choral Evensong at Canterbury Cathedral, before launching the University's Summer Music Week on Friday 1 June with a concert in the sumptuous acoustic of the Cathedral Crypt.
