The joy of singing!

We call it Three Days in May, but it’s almost four really. You arrive on Friday afternoon and we start at 6.30 with an introductory session before your first dinner prepared by our lovely chef Erika, whose food is worth the ticket on its own!

 

In the evening we light a fire and share songs and tunes and chat under the starry skies of The South Downs.

 

All your food is included so that we can eat together, and not have to worry about food supplies and cooking.

This means we can fully immerse ourselves in the ambience and the music.

 

So after breakfast in the morning, we have our first singing session and continue to lunchtime with a coffee break.

 

By and by we re-convene for and afternoon of more songs and tips about harmony and group singing.

You don’t need any experience - we learn everything by ear and you’ll find your leaders - Roger and Sue - very experienced and patient. We like to be encouraging and supportive.

The whole idea is to have fun, so no-one gets too serious about it, even though you might find yourself challenged from time to time.

 

You have free time before cocktail hour to go for a walk, practise or even have a snooze, until you hear the voices serenading you again.

 

Dinner, evening session - do bring an accompanying instrument  if you like.

And so to bed.

And it’s still only Saturday!

 

Sunday we can do it all again, and Monday too, like some perfect groundhog day.

 

Maybe we’ll do an informal concert on Monday night to show off the collaborations with your new friends.

Tuesday we share our breakfast and reluctantly toddle off home with new friends and lovely musical memories in our head.

​

Did I say cocktails? Well, I'll bring a bottle or two, and if you have a favourite tipple you'd like to share,

we'll manage quite a reasonable bar.
