If you would like the opportunity to fine tune your knowledge of the piece and meet likeminded people in preparation for the Come and Sing event on Thursday 25 February 2027, come and join us for a series of four evening chorus rehearsals taking place in the Howard Opera Centre, Leeds. Rehearsals will take place on Thursday evenings throughout January and February, led by Choral Conductor Christopher Pulleyn and an Opera North repetiteur.

You don’t need to be an experienced choral singer to take part, but you do need to be able to read a music score or be able to pick up music by ear and follow along with a score.

Please confirm your voice part at the time of booking.

For the Cantique de Jean Racine (Op. 11) we would recommend the Oxford University Press edition.
