New Term starts today!

West Norfolk Music Centre’s spring term starts today. It’s not too late to start with us, just ask about the opportunities which are still open. We are still looking for more players to join our wind bands and orchestra.

flyer3-page001We would also like to welcome more young people to our children’s choir, now West Norfolk Youth Choir, so if you are between the ages of 7 and 14 and love music, contact us now. There are no auditions, all you need is a voice and the enthusiasm to sing in a group.

Happy New Year!!

Swiss choir to perform at Leverington

Swiss choir Kantorei will be visiting the UK in October on a Singreise (singing journey). Their aim is to promote liturgical and sacred choral music and their visits are as much about learning about culture, church history and liturgical practices as about singing.

They are performing in St Giles Cathedral in Edinburgh, Little St Mary in Cambridge and – amazingly – just outside West Norfolk in Leverington at 7.30pm on 10th October. Leverington was their choice as a “church off the beaten track”.

The Kantorei’s web site is in German, or click here for a rough translation through Google.
