Choir & orchestra

Please join or rejoin us this summer to sing!

Musique-Cordiale in Kent:

Concerts 29 July – 3 August 2022

This year’s magnum opus will be:

Gioachino Rossini‘s Petite messe solennelle (Little solemn mass)

(not notably little or solemn, actually!

We would again like to invite and welcome good and/or experienced singers to join or rejoin the Musique-Cordiale Festival Choir in Kent, GB this summer. Please contact us if you are interested (or can recommend others!)

Rehearsals start at 2:30 PM on Thursday 28 July.
To be conducted by Graham Ross, Music Director of Clare College, Cambridge, whom we are thrilled to have back to direct and inspire the choir and orchestra for another year, with soloists to be announced, to be accompanied by piano & accordion, to be performed in Doddington Place Gardens – with a little amplification and cover for performers, as required.

Music: Bärenreiter edition, if possible please. (Other repertoire info to follow).

Other works for the choir this time:

After due consultation, Pippa and Graham have decided upon an a cappella programme:

Sethus Calvisius Singet dem Herrn
Vaughan Williams Serenade to music with piano & violin
J S Bach Singet dem Herrn

We hope this will please our singers and audiences alike. The Calvisius was Graham’s idea and the Serenade came from Owen Hanmer in this, the VW centenary. How could we argue?!? We will provide details of how to obtain this music soon.

Please enrol ASAP! And, especially, book accommodation too. Enrolment deadline 10 June 2022

First rehearsal: Newnham church, ME9 0LL, starting at 2:30PM on Thursday 28 July,

In 2022, our 18th year, we regret that we were not yet ready (planning has to begin the previous autumn) to return to France this summer (though some of our younger musicians and organisers are on hand to try to achieve that in 2023. Instead, we are following the pattern set In 2021, when we re-emerged… with a smaller but no less exciting mini-festival, which took place mainly out of doors in Kent GB, 29 July-5 August 2021including Mozart Requiem & Vivaldi Gloria
(and a lovely varied concert in Faversham in December)

So, for this year, we hope that you will now join or re-join us for rehearsals, concerts and much conviviality, 28 July – 4 August 2022.

Membership
Fees

NB: All participants are requested to become members (unless the subscription has already been paid for 2021/22). There is no obligation to be a member to sing in the Autumn events in Kent; however, THIS YEAR, we are requesting that all singing or playing participants are members at the full or young-person/student rates please. If you join/rejoin now, this will cover your participation for any events thru June 2023

We would be delighted if you decide to upgrade to become an individual or Joint Friend; all the benefits of being a Friend can be found by visiting our website. Musique Cordiale needs and values its friends and their vital support which enables us to afford to run the events in France and Britain each year.
This year, again without any subventions, we have VERY LIMITED funds with which to launch and manage a festival after our loss-making experiences in 2020 and without the public funds and local supporters and even the planned (and popular) musical fund-raising events - that we usually rely upon in the Pays de Fayence. So please, if you spare any EXTRA funds to help us run a great week of events AND to recover for the future, please be EXTRA GENEROUS when you commit to pay! THANK YOU!
Regarding the Programme, we have a plan and, this time, we hope that the pandemic situation makes our plans more certain than in the past 2 years! We hope and intend that everyone will have a safe, rewarding and enjoyable experience. Do get in touch with any ideas! It was TOO LATE alreadythis Spring to organise any events in Seillans.... but, with active involvement by a team of young musiciansd and administrators, wer retain hopes for NEXT year (2023) while also intending to build on our success in Kent

1. Participation in CHOIR, Summer 2022 - per person singing*
We invite current and recent members of the MC Festival choir and other good singers to join the choir for this week of rehearsals and concerts. We aim to manage the week on a self-financing basis as in 2021. With your help, we did eventually manage to cover most of our past and annual costs by the end of 2021. In this location, we cannot yet be confident of ticket sales/box office income and WE ALSO HAVE NONE OF OUR PREVIOUS SUBSIDY FROM LOCAL FRENCH TOURISM & CULTURAL AUTHORITIES. We will provide the essentials (accompanists, conductor, soloists, equipment, water, venues - incl. bad-weather alternatives, seating etc. + website). The participation fee for singing is therefore to cover these items (please ask if you would like to see our budget and accounts).
We have set the standard fee at £250 (same as last year).

Full-time STUDENTS aged 26 or less are invited to sing for a special fee of £10
(and we are seeking a limited amount of student accommodation for you too, sponsored by local residents and funded by The Musique-Cordiale Trust). This year, choir participation fees include entry for all concerts during the week, starting on Friday 29 July.
Quantity : number of choir participants on this booking*
Please enter a number greater than or equal to 1.
DISCOUNT - residents of Faversham, Swale, Canterbury, Ashford

Please let us know here if you want FEWER than 7 daily meals and also please indicate any possible contributions you might be able to make for the Thursday meal.

The 2021 - 2022 context for Music in Kent
COVID-19 RESTRICTIONS & COMMON SENSE PRECAUTIONS Rules have relaxed, most of you are well-vaccinated and hope is in the air. However, even this summer.... please note that we will be adhering to COVID-19 rules, restrictions and advice applicable to choirs, events, meals & accommodation. Even in July/August 2022, this could still include SOCIAL DISTANCING at times, mask-wearing or other precautions, limits on times and durations of events and on numbers participating and on accommodation sharing. Many rehearsals, performances and meals will be planned to take place out of doors (with some bad-weather alternatives, possibly with different rules). Caution and masks may be required or advised in toilets etc. Please ensure that the week goes off safely and uneventfully. DO NOT COME IF YOU THINK YOU MIGHT BE INFECTIOUS - and share any information you have immediately. Depending the latest information and rules, there may still (or again) be restrictions on communal eating, incl. breakfast. Communal rooms may not be available. These are the only terms on which we can manage this carefully-monitored event. Audiences may be able only to walk around and enjoy the performance at a distance. We hope they will be free to sit and listen in a normal way but this cannot be assured. Chairs for the choir will be available for the singers during rehearsals but (mostly) not during the concert when chairs may be required by any audience members who choose to sit down to listen.

WE HOPE to be able to run this series of events with minimal restrictions this summer. If government rules force us to limit events or aspects of the planned week, we will notify you and consult you ASAP. If we obtain repayments of your costs from accommodation providers in the event of cancellation or changes required by government or heath situation, we will endeavour to repay you ASAP after we receive any repayment from providers or the government. (Insurance is currently not available to us against pandemic-related rules or precautions and, to date, the government has not agreed to indemnify festival organisers for this risk. Because of the planned out-of-doors and cautious nature of some that we are planning, we currently hope that need not affect us unduly but we must all remain on-guard. We CANNOT GARANTEE that rules and restrictions may not change, that full performances may be permitted without further restrictions nor that any audience is assured). While we will use our best endeavours to repay deposits and prepaid sums in a timely and responsible manner, factors outside our control (including some uninsurable risks) mean that we cannot guarantee immediate repayment in the event of cancellation, illness, changed infection rates or other items affected by developments with Covid-19, some of which remain unpredictable. We WILL have insurance against normal risks to the public, musicians and choir from other non-Covid events. However, in as much as it is available, we do require that participants insure themselves for non-Covid risks of cancellation or illness.
Thank you. We look forward to having you with us!
Once you have successfully submitted this enrolment form, please proceed to the separate payment process (see below).

HISTORY

As usual since 2005, Musique Cordiale consisted (in its reduced form in Britain in 2020 and 2021) of a professional orchestra and soloists, performing a variety of other works as well as accompanying the experienced but largely-amateur choir under the professional direction of conductor Graham Ross. But as in previous (and, we hope, future) years, the whole ensemble has not yielded completely to the Covid-19 pandemic and continued to perform major choral masterpieces, usually in both International Musique Cordiale Festival in the Pays de Fayence in southern France and Musique-Cordiale in Kent in England. Below is information from the most recent full festival in France:

In 2018 it was Haydn’s Die Jahreszeiten (The Seasons) …and in summer 2019, the big choral work was Handel’s SAUL. In 2020, we had a whole new set of choral works for the choir … but, following the cancellation of the 2020 festival in France, we managed only a single outdoor concert – and 2 days of rehearsal in beautiful sunny (yes) Kent, GB – but we managed to produce a memorable performance of the Brahms Requiem in September 2020.

For details of the 2020 Festival and arrangements/enrolment for the choir, singing the Brahms Requiem
plus other choral works and an exciting a cappella programme*, please follow this LINK
