This is a bit of a last-minute notice, but it’s good to welcome a singing group from America to Bath. It’s one offering the chance to join in too!
Jeremy Carter-Gordon emailed me to say:
” I sing with the internationally touring vocal ensemble Windborne. We’re in Bath tomorrow, Saturday, September 26, for a singing workshop and short concert at St Swithin’s Church.
I wondered whether this might be of interest to Bath Newseum or something you’d be willing to share today. I’ve included the event information below that you can use verbatim if that’s easiest.
Many thanks!
