Brighton Orpheus Choir is pleased to announce an evening of song and stories by Jeremy Bines, the Chorus Master at the world renowned Glyndebourne Opera.
Guests will be very welcome to join with members of the choir to hear first hand what it is like to be a Chorus Master and how the Glyndebourne chorus rehearses.


After a short break (during which wine & nibbles will be on sale) the choir and guests confident in reading music are invited to rehearse two opera choruses with Jeremy. Other guests are very welcome to sit back and enjoy the rehearsal.
