Join Cambridge Timeline Choir for a musical voyage exploring water from the shoreline to the horizon.
From sailors' stories and selkie tales to lovers' laments and the forgotten voices of the fens, expect folk songs and poems alongside brand new choral works from acclaimed composers Alison Willis and Jonathan Brigg.
The concert takes place from 7:30-9:30pm on Saturday 11th July at St Paul’s Church, Hills Road, Cambridge.
There will be a retiring charity collection for Cure Parkinson's.
About Cambridge Timeline Choir
Founded by composer Stef Conner and based on Mill Road, Cambridge Timeline Choir is a community choir with a difference. Their artistically ambitious and participatory projects breathe new life into old music, through the creation of new (and reimagining of old) works, woven together with stories, poems, and historical research. From Fenland folk songs to ancient drinking songs, their programmes focus on bridging connections between cultures, time periods and musical styles.
