Have just had a fab couple of days running workshops for the @v8_foundation in France 🇫🇷

The schools have all prepared so well and are ready for their concert in May with @TheApollo5 🌟

[VOCES8 Foundation @v8_foundation]

It’s a week of workshops in France getting ready for concerts with @TheApollo5 @hatchmyideas @VOCES8 this summer. @AnnM_Wright has been with @WonhamLydia @Matt_Swainsy in Laon and Chauny. 👏🏻👏🏻 Lydia & Matt for 1st ever French workshops. A roaring success!!

I've really enjoyed singing with @manconsort recently - such a lovely group of singers!
Our recording of Lotti's Crucifixus is out now 🙌🏼

[The Mancunium Consort @manconsort]

As Christians around the world celebrate Holy Week, we are reminded of Jesus' sacrifice at the hands of Pontius Pilate. This piece, sung here by the Mancunium Consort at Holy Name Church in Manchester, acts as an intimate reflection on these events

[Genesis Sixteen @GenesisSixteen]

We love seeing our entrepreneurial alumni forming new groups & making beautiful music. Congrats to current member Harry Mobbs & alumnus Joe Taylor for forming @manconsort also with alumna @WonhamLydia in the group. Listen here to their moving rendition of Lotti's Crucifixus! ✝️

Fantastic week in France conducting 6 shows with the brilliant Orchestre National d'Auvergne and soprano soloist Lydia Wonham. Music by Tchaikovsky, Mozart, Neil Valentine, and Paul Smith who created the project - Winter House - an interactive concert for children 🇫🇷🎶🎻🎭

[Carris Jones @carrissima]

On #IWD2023 and after the awful @BBCSingers announcement - another impact of these plans will be fewer female voices heard - not just through the world-beating composition commissions but also in the glorious sound of their sopranos and altos. 1/2 https://t.co/3fpZ2Wet1l

[The Gesualdo Six @TheGesualdoSix]

The BBC Singers are at the pinnacle of the UK’s choral scene – a beacon for choral broadcasting around the world, and an inspiration to ensembles like us.

The news that they are to be disbanded is appalling. We hope this decision can be reversed.

@MissMHumphreys @v8_foundation @Bfdcathedral Thank you for your lovely feedback! We were so impressed by their enthusiasm and behaviour - a really special one for me ☺️

[Lydia Wonham @WonhamLydia]

Today I saw out my first full education project for the @v8_foundation with a workshop and concert at @Bfdcathedral - so proud of the children and their fab singing ����

[Mrs Barnes @MrsBarnes___]

I am beaming with pride right now - our Year 2 and Year 3 children did an absolutely amazing job singing with @VOCES8 @v8_foundation today. The big sing at @Bfdcathedral is something we will all remember for a very long time! @WestminsterBD3

[Paul Smith @hatchmyideas]

@AnnM_Wright @WonhamLydia Woohoooo!

[Lydia Wonham @WonhamLydia]

I’ve really been enjoying this scholarship and I’m looking forward to be doing a BBC3 broadcast with them in a couple of weeks time 🧡
