Locusts! Frogs! Flies! Darkness! The vivid word-painting in Handel’s Great Escape oratorio Israel in Egypt is even more dynamic (and shorter) than his Messiah. Come hear us sing it on 12 July in the marvellous acoustic of St. Gabriel’s, Pimlico. www.tickettailor.com/events/theel...

Thanks to everyone who came to hear us sing our all @willtoddmusic.bsky.social programme including Will’s genuinely extraordinary Requiem for choir, soprano and electric guitarist. Susan Young and @thomasgraymusic were magnificent and watching you all, rapt, as we sang was a thrill.

Thrilled to sing Will Todd’s unique Requiem with @elysiansingers.bsky.social on Friday May 9. Ricocheting between tenderly shimmering and utterly wild, it’s scored for choir in multi-part harmony, soprano solo and electric guitar. A total one-off. Hear it live! www.ticketsource.co.uk/whats-on/blo...

I'm singing this and it's bloody gorgeous. Come to the concert!

This lush music is a joy to sing. Have a listen... and now imagine hearing it live, shimmering into space. We're singing it on Friday 9 May in an all-Will Todd concert including his wild and wonderful Requiem for choir, soprano & electric guitar. Ticket link below. www.youtube.com/watch?v=elId...
