In this World Cup year, we will be performing ‘Perfect Pitch’, a selection of fun football-themed songs by composer Malcolm Singer, setting the rhythmically inventive and entertaining poems of Nick Toczek and incorporating fun body percussion and obligatory football chanting!

This very special event will bring together a massed children’s choir of over 1600 singers from more than eighteen of the county’s primary and secondary schools to sing alongside an orchestra of strings, piano and percussion, combining the forces of the Yehudi Menuhin School and the String Academy. The event will be hosted by the Bernardi Music Group in association with the Yehudi Menuhin School and the String Academy, and supported by Arts Council England.

In the lead up to the event, Schools will come together for three big rehearsals led by choirmaster Mark Bradbury (Little Notes, Build an Opera) and composer/conductor Malcolm Singer. Children will rehearse the songs independently in school, and the project will culminate in a dress rehearsal and two performances at Charterhouse School.

There will be four concerts over the 9th and 10th of November at Charterhouse School Chapel in Godalming and Windlesham House School in Pulborough.

Tickets will be on sale in September, so please keep an eye on our Newsletters or come back to the website at a later date.
