Banbury Choral Society hosted its Friends launch event on Friday in the Great Hall at the stunning location of Broughton Castle.
The choir, conducted by musical director Julian Harris, sang a programme of music that was both moving and uplifting, interspersed with solo pieces by young students from the Youth Outreach Scheme.
The event was attended by Lord and Lady Saye & Sele, the Mayor of Banbury Councillor Sean Woodcock, and Sir Paul Hayter, the choir’s president.
The four pieces sung by the choir were all composed in the 18th Century and perfectly suited the setting.
Haydn’s Te Deum was followed by Bach’s well-known Jesus Joy of Man’s Desiring, Mozart’s Ave Verum and, completing the evening, Handel’s coronation masterpiece Zadok.
While I felt Ave Verum was sung a little too slowly, all the pieces were beautifully balanced and showed the choir’s talent to the full. It was fun that the solo pieces were ... continue reading

Choir Boy Looks at Homosexuality in a Black Prep School (Steven Leigh Morris)
At first, Tarell Alvin McCraney’s study of five, black prep-school students (Jeremy Pope, Nicholas L. Ashe, Donovan Mitchell, Grantham Coleman and Caleb Eberhardt), along with their stern headmaster (Michael A.Shepperd) and a visiting white professor (Leonard Kelly-Young) from the Civil Rights era, might seem schematic. The “group drama” about opportunity and its lack in a callous world is carved from plays ranging from Trevor Griffith’s Comedians to Herbert Ross’ Steel Magnolias.
Eventually, however, McCraney’s poetical-musical style, along with Trip Cullman’s perfect staging, transforms a stock scenario into a kind of oratorio: The five students, as part of the school choir, punctuate the action with ... continue reading

Threshold Choir in Lawrence comes alive to sing for the dying (DONALD BRADLEY The Kansas City Star)
LAWRENCE
The open door lets the women’s singing waft into the cool evening.
Had someone passed by on the narrow, residential street in this college town, they may have slowed, stopped even. And listened in the dark to the two-round, a cappella harmony coming from the small, white house.
But they likely would not have recognized a tune or lyric. The songs are not for them.
They are for the dying.
The women inside make up Lawrence’s new Threshold Choir. The idea is for members to go in small groups to a hospice setting, hospital or home and sing softly at the bedsides of those near death.
At the recent rehearsal, member Anne Haehl tells the ... continue reading

Choir Boy' melds music and message at Geffen (Los Angeles Times)
A transformation happens to the students of Charles R. Drew Prep School for Boys whenever they open their mouths to sing. As soon as these feisty adolescents give themselves over to the Negro Spirituals that inspired their ancestors, the jousting, bickering and name-calling that have been dominating their extracurricular lives no longer seem all that important.
A similar change happens to Tarell Alvin McCraney's drama "Choir Boy" whenever these characters switch from speech to song. A play with a plot that could easily be incorporated into a season of "Glee" moves from prose to ... continue reading
