Benslow Music

Chamber choir and consort singing of madrigals and Partsongs.

Since 2017 James Oldfield has run a course to guide singers through the art of consort singing, and we'll enjoy some sight-reading challenges whilst exploring the riches of secular music from the 16th century to the present day. Participants are welcome to bring their own suggestions of repertoire to look at in afternoon sessions. Good sight-reading and the ability to hold a line and stay in tune are all essentials. This course is ideal for instrumentalists who play at a high level and wish to transfer their chamber music skills into a vocal context. An enjoyable, relaxed and inclusive atmosphere whilst making music at a high level.
