Thank you for coming to Reading!

Thank you for making our 38th Annual Convention such a memorable one! We were delighted to see so many delegates and exhibitors. It was great to see so many familiar faces, and to meet lots of new ones too.

Sunday updates!

If you’ve been with us in Reading today, we hope you’ve had a great day! If you’re with us again tomorrow, or are joining us as a Sunday delegate, here are just a few useful updates to our schedule. Session 2b: repertoire discovery – member composers We’ve had lots of submissions from member composers, so this is a bumper session and will therefore start at 9.10am, rather than 9.30am. Do come along and hear lots of new choral works for all types of choir, introduced almost entirely by the composers themselves. Session 2a: masterclass with Sarah Tenant-Flowers We’ve had some delivery problems with repertoire and therefore we don’t have hard copies of Carols for Choirs 6 as planned. We have been sent pdf files of the carols which our conductors have chosen and it would be extremely helpful if those attending could download them onto their phone or tablet, preferably in advance.

You can access the files, and all our repertoire resources in the the delegate only area of the website, or via the email sent to all delegates.
