COURSE DESCRIPTION:   We pick a breadth of interesting material from our own and other cultures and learn it as a group throughout the weekend. We also take a bit of time to add the all important little nuances of arrangement, interpretation, dynamics etc. once we are confident with the songs. Jess, Maddy and Rose-Ellen will be joined by a pianist to bring you a weekend of challenging, satisfying and memorable harmony singing.

WHO IS IT FOR?   This is for the chorally quite confident! Some group harmony singing experience would be beneficial. Written music and lyrics will be provided though music reading ability is not required.

LEARNING OUTCOMES: Learn some great songs, stay in a beautiful location, bond with other singers, eat good food and sing, sing, sing!

CANCELLATION POLICY:

We allow just a deposit payment to book and secure your place on any and every course. This deposit amount is currently £150. If you notify us of your cancellation within 3+ months of the course you will receive £100 of your £150 deposit back.
Any Notification after this time, regardless of reason, shall not be deemed a reasonable amount of time for us to try to re-fill your place so all of the deposit will be withheld. For this reason, we strongly advise you to book separate event/travel insurance so that you may recover all of your expenses should unforeseen circumstances arise.

We can no longer afford the costs of last-minute refunds in terms of admin or advertising or empty places. Around 5+ people per course are now dropping out for reportedly very serious reasons. This is unsustainable for us because we are a micro business with very fine margins and have not taken this decision lightly.

We will email you four months before the course, to inform you that you have 2 weeks to pay the balances. After the 2 weeks has expired, you may lose your place if payments have not been received. Non-payment of invoices is at your own risk and we will not/ cannot be held responsible for missed payments.

Add emma@stonesbarn.co.uk as a ‘trusted email’ to make sure emails arrive.
