It’s Day 7 of 7 and the final day of this year’s #GenesisSixteen programme. Thanks to @PetworthFest for having us to perform tonight in the gorgeous St Mary’s Church, and to @ejdougan and conducting scholar @CharliePerryMus for leading our singers so brilliantly! @Genesis_Fndn

Will be wearing a polo shirt and waving arms with @GenesisSixteen at Sounds Sublime Festival in a few weeks!

@MattQuinnsMusic will also be there but don’t let that deter you as his amazing @LonYouthChoirs Chamber Choir will be there also.

Should be an epic day 🔉

We also did happen to work on Dyson in D on May 4th and this was NOT planned but a happy coincidence

[In Quires and Places Where They Meme @QuireMemes]

Remember, the correct response to "May the Force be with you" is "and also with you", except when you're at BCP Evensong, in which case it's, "and with thy spirit".

[Charlie Perry @CharliePerryMus]

Really special day working with the fantastic choristers at @ChoirNewport! A chance to properly delve into text and technique in an environment when there isn’t often time to do so.

Very honoured to be working for @TheSixteen alongside some fab @GenesisSixteen alumni too 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🎵

[Newport Cathedral Choir @ChoirNewport]

What a fantastic day working with members of The Sixteen!
We learnt so much, had so much fun, enjoyed singing and listening to some wonderful music and have come away feeling really inspired by this wonderful opportunity.

[Charlie Perry @CharliePerryMus]

Quite a good piece, quite a good time had. Amazing singing from SCS.

Also featuring @rorywainwright’s companion piece ‘A glimpse of the Light’ which is truly a gem and should be programmed more please!!

[Greg Link @GregLink_]

Bass soloing in Mozart Requiem tonight with British Sinfonietta and Stafford Choral Society conducted by my @nationalssp colleague and pal @CharliePerryMus. Fun gig! 🎶

Epic times in a stunning venue last Saturday with @epworth_choir. Most Massive Nelson Mass I’ve done thanks to wonderful musicians and 2(!) chandeliers in the audience!

A chance to work with the one and only David Temple and the choir that can do it all!

Definitely an invaluable experience…
