Saturday we enjoyed a peaceful day in Wells with bright sunny skies. We spent the morning in rehearsal preparing for our four services in less than 24 hours time! The interesting thing about the “Song School”- rehearsal room in American English- is there are NO chairs. There are only choir desks and a piano. The [...]

We went back to work today with an early morning rehearsal as we still have 5 services to lead over the next 3 days, and then it was off to Weston Super Mare and the beach! Some thoughts from the Choristers about the last couple of days: “I can’t imagine having a better [...]

Thursday is “dumb day” at Wells Cathedral. This means the resident choir has the day off and a visiting choir leads the service. This was our full day to tour without responsibilities late in the day. We climbed onto the bus and headed to the country of Wales. No, we did not leave the rain [...]

More thoughts from the Choristers about Evensong: “Today we took a bus to Bath, and I must say it is the cutest town in England. The shops were so eclectic and the food was great. Although I thoroughly enjoyed Bath, my favorite part of the day was singing Thomas Tallis’ “O Lord, give thy Holy [...]

On Monday, July 18, we spent much of the day learning about Wells Cathedral, both its history and its acoustic! Much of the morning was spent in rehearsal, working hard on the “mountain” of music to be presented this week. With 8 services to lead on six different days and all requiring at least five [...]

Thoughts from the Choristers about London: “At Windsor Castle, we watched the Changing of the Guards. They were dressed in the red coats and fuzzy black hats that you always hear about, and yes, they stand perfectly still. The whole ceremony was a lot longer than I expected, with groups of 9 or 10 guards [...]
