Jeremy Backhouse

Conductor of Vasari Singers, Vivace Chorus

[Vivace Chorus Guildford @VivaceChorus]

Our next concert is the fantastic Italian Job! Pergolesi, Allegri, Gabrieli, Monteverdi and ... Handel! But as he wrote Dixit Dominus while he was living in Rome, we've decided it counts. Tickets here: https://t.co/BqmI8Pg63R

@GuildfordJazz I’m looking forward to performing solos in my home town of Guildford this month. Two of my favourite crossover pieces: Mass in Blue 4/3 and Sacred Concert 18/3. #soprano #jazzsinger #choraljazz #soloist #livemusic #guildford #concert

[Jeremy Backhouse @JeremyBackhouse]

Absolutely brilliant! This concert is now EVEN MORE unmissable!

[Vivace Chorus Guildford @VivaceChorus]

Absolutely brilliant to have such energetic and inspiring choral jazz coaching from @JoForbesLE last night. We learned so much about singing with a swing - come and hear how it sounds @GLiveGuildford on March 18th with @JeremyBackhouse and @GuildfordJazz!

[Jeremy Backhouse @JeremyBackhouse]

Glorious to be back in @TonbridgeUK chapel with @VasariSingers @JeremyBackhouse and Martin Ford on the organ (and the considered wisdom of Adrian Peacock as always on point)

[Vivace Chorus Guildford @VivaceChorus]

Tickets from just £10 for our Duke Ellington Jazz Concert with @GuildfordJazz, along with amazing soprano @JoForbesLE on March 18th. A chance to see some of the UK's best jazz musicians and hear what Ellington called his best work... https://t.co/GoL55rJXsF

[Jeremy Backhouse @JeremyBackhouse]

Very sad to hear that Kit Hesketh-Harvey has died. We were @CburyCathedral together - where we recorded this album. Kit is on the far right and I am second from the left. What a talent - taken too soon.

[Jeremy Backhouse @JeremyBackhouse]

This music is ALL fantastic! And what a band we've put together. Very excited about this concert 😊

[Vivace Chorus Guildford @VivaceChorus]

Duke Ellington + award-winning band from @GuildfordJazz + the amazing @JoForbesLE + @bobchilcott and @Will_Todd_Music = the BEST night out in March! Tickets for @GLiveGuildford here: https://t.co/GoL55rKvid

Very good to meet up again (for the 14th year in a row!) with @RichardStilgoe at @StStephenEC4N last night for the annual carol concert with @VasariSingers and Willow Northeald, in aid of The Michael Varah Memorial Fund (MVMF). A wonderfully atmospheric and inspiring evening

[Jeremy Backhouse @JeremyBackhouse]

What a night! A privilege to conduct these fantastic forces on Saturday. @VivaceChorus and @VasariSingers in terrific voice, beautiful singing from @tniesser, great playing from Samuel Staples and the hard-working National Symphony Orchestra. Loads of lovely plaudits coming in!

[Jeremy Backhouse @JeremyBackhouse]

Last night, @KaiserChiefs in Bournemouth. Tomorrow, RVW, Holst and Walton @GliveGuildford. That's what I call an eclectic musical week!
