PLEASE READ THE DOCUMENT ATTACHED CAREFULLY BEFORE 13th July 2025!
This is a combined document that brings together all previous performers' notes along with some of the latest information (6/7/2025) and RAH plans. It may be sensible to print it and bring it on Sunday.
It includes::
For the Autumn concert we will be using the old Novello edition (not the Pilkington edition) of Haydn's Creation, with text in English. Vivace last performed this work in 2009, so you may already have your own copy of the vocal score.
For the Royal Albert Hall Berlioz concert, we have specific blocks of seats that we can sell at rehearsals.
Please click here to see a plan of the available seats. They are highlighted in yellow.
Note that some tickets may already have been sold.
Prices:
| Loggia | £49 |
| Arena | £39 |
| Stalls | £46 |
In-line with general practice, we have removed our requirement for testing, mask wearing, and social distancing measures, but we do understand that many people wish to minimise the chance of becoming infected or of spreading infection.
Please do not attend a rehearsal if you are feeling ill or have symptoms of Covid or other viruses like flu. If in doubt, you can attend and sit at the edge or back, wearing a mask, so that you can listen and mark up your score with any instructions.
The annual subscription to the choir is £200, payable in one go in September at the start of each new season, or in four quarterly instalments of £50 in September, December, March and June.
Please let us know if you have questions or concerns around paying. We will try to help!
The easiest way to pay is to set up a standing order to the choir’s account:
