Here at NYCGB we are still reeling from this Easter's fantastic concerts. The junior choirs and main choir gave a joint concert at the packed Birmingham Symphony Hall, including a Panufnik premiere. It was the first time many of the junior choir members had performed as part of NYCGB, and to do so on such an impressive stage was some feat, of which we are all very proud. The Training choirs were involved in a fantastic collaboration with the National Youth Jazz Collective (
www.nyjc.co.uk) concluding in a fantastic concert at the Barbican. There are some fantastic photos from the events, I have uploaded a few of my favourites below but more will be available to view at
www.nycgb.net in the near future!
All of this inspiring work really demonstrated to me, a relative newbie having only worked in the organisation since September, the passion and enthusiasm of everyone who is involved in NYCGB. A blog is the ideal platform to convey how much we love singing, performance and working on new and innovative projects! The blog will feature snippets into the musical lives of members, staff and alumni, giving a flavour of the residential courses and concerts which make up the NYCGB experience.
