Requiem in PARIS - choral weekend with Matthew Coleridge

Requiem in Paris Choral Weekend

Join a massed choir of UK and French singers - hosted by local chamber choir Lux Perpetua - for an unforgettable weekend, performing Matthew Coleridge's Requiem at the American Cathedral in Paris. 

Matthew will lead a weekend of rehearsals, culminating in a concert performance of this modern choral masterpiece.

We'll be based a stone's throw from the iconic Arc de Triomphe, within walking distance of landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower, Champs-Élysées and Louvre.

With plenty of time between rehearsals to explore this magical city, you can enjoy a weekend of singing and a touristy mini-break rolled in to one!

with George Nicholls (organ), Maxim Calver (cello) and Amelia Smith (soprano)

This singing weekend is open to singers of all abilities, but basic music-reading skills are essential. Music will be available to buy ahead of the weekend.
