DYK that Gabriel Fauré (1845-1924) was a bridge between C19th and C20th classical music? Teenage Fauré studied under Camille Saint Saëns (1835-1921), but went on to teach Maurice Ravel (1875-1937). Our Rehearsals start 29 April for his famous Requiem 🎼

Fab @londonmums review of spring concert: “unusual combo …both technically difficult and sung beautifully”. An energising, uplifting evening from a “local, cheap and always enjoyable” choir. 📆 7 July for Fauré, Laurensen and Goodall londonmumsmagazine.com/activ…
