Cast your vote for Hilary Campbell and Bristol Choral Society for the RPS Inspiration Award! Their perseverance throughout the pandemic was remarkable and, as a prizewinner in the Mary Otty Competition, I benefited from their generosity and industriousness https://t.co/xIfOjqNyUl

@neatylaughalot @BristolChoral Thank you Annette, that’s ever so kind. I was really impressed by the recording - you all did such a great job! Hope to hear it in the flesh at some point 🤞

[James Williams @JamesWBaritone]

Delighted to have been awarded the 2nd Prize at the Mary Otty Composition Competition. Thank you @BristolChoral for their wonderful recordings and everybody involved in making it such a special evening!

If you’re free this evening at 7pm, pop over to BCS’s carol competition. They’ll be playing my new work “Christ’s Nativity” and there’s an interlude from the wonderful harpist, Anne Denholm.

Don’t miss the chance to enjoy some festive favourites at the next Stay and Sing with me, @phillipamezzo and @HilaryJCampbell

[Phillipa Thomas @phillipamezzo]

Join me, @HilaryJCampbell and @JamesWBaritone for this event. Having been for a walk today and seen Christmas lights & decorations in #düsseldorf I’m in the mood to get recording some carols.

[Phillipa Thomas @phillipamezzo]

[Hilary Campbell @HilaryJCampbell]

Brilliant to see singers from all over joining @StaySing !

[Phillipa Thomas @phillipamezzo]

Thank you @DemeryJoi it was fun to contribute to the final run through. The very first time I was booked as a soloist in #vivaldigloria was actually at a ‘Come and Sing’ event so it felt quite nostalgic performing a movement for @StaySing x

[Phillipa Thomas @phillipamezzo]

Ooo I don’t think I’ve ever been called “glamorous” before. It must be a perk of singing online and not in person. 😊

[Amber Dennis @AmberD75]

Thank you @HilaryJCampbell, @phillipamezzo and @JamesWBaritone for another great @StaySing. Vivaldi Gloria has a special place in my heart as the first choral piece I sang in and this afternoon was really enjoyable canter though it (horse reference intended!).

[Phillipa Thomas @phillipamezzo]

Thank you Mary. @JamesWBaritone and I had a lot of fun and it’s a pleasure to see so many people smiling and singing. Thank you @HilaryJCampbell for inviting us to join you again. @StaySing

[James Williams @JamesWBaritone]

And we’re back! Come and join our next Stay and Sing event on Saturday 6th June at 2pm.

[StayAndSing @StaySing]

Lots of you have been asking about our next Stay and Sing: we can now announce that it'll be on SATURDAY 6 JUNE 2pm. More details to follow shortly... @phillipamezzo @JamesWBaritone @HilaryJCampbell

[James Williams @JamesWBaritone]

Looking forward to a wonderful afternoon, making music with over 100 other people at today’s @StaySing event with @phillipamezzo @HilaryJCampbell Let’s fire up the big guns!

[StayAndSing @StaySing]

And it’s time for our third Stay and Sing already! Looking forward to a full house (zoom?) as we all belt out I Was Glad! @phillipamezzo @JamesWBaritone @HilaryJCampbell

[James Williams @JamesWBaritone]

Close to selling out! Come and join us in some rousing choruses with @HilaryJCampbell @phillipamezzo @StaySing

[Phillipa Thomas @phillipamezzo]

Brilliant that so many people are getting involved. Singing is so important and helps us connect with others as well as making ourselves feel good. Come and join us.

[Have I Got News For You @haveigotnews]

After Donald Trump suggests ‘injecting disinfectant’ to treat coronavirus, millions of furloughed workers wonder why they’re currently out of a job while the world’s biggest imbecile isn’t.

[StayAndSing @StaySing]

Wow, thanks for your quick responses, everyone! We opened booking a couple of hours ago, and we're almost half full already for 2 May! Look forward to seeing you all there! @HilaryJCampbell @phillipamezzo @JamesWBaritone

[James Williams @JamesWBaritone]

Incredibly excited to be joining @HilaryJCampbell and @phillipamezzo at the next @StaySing event on the 2nd May. Make sure to reserve your place before it sells out #StayHealthyAndHappy

[Hilary Campbell @HilaryJCampbell]

For my next @StaySing event, I’m delighted to be joined by @phillipamezzo and @JamesWBaritone , who contributed to the first two events, but will now join me live in the zoom session. But don’t worry, they’ll still be filming their wonderfully idiosyncratic rounds, too!
