How can I keep from singing?

The City of Oxford Choir celebrate the return of live music with a riot of songs about music and singing itself.

Music has the ability to amplify powerful emotional responses; our programme abounds with the joy of singing, from Finzi's My spirit sang all day to the effusive cacophany of Kenneth Leighton's Let All The World In Every Corner Sing. A meditative Vaughan Williams contemplates the meaning of art in Silence and Music, while George Jeffrey's rare and delicious verse anthem A music strange, full of delight echoes with evocative harmonies.  The programme will also include 'music on music' by Monteverdi, Mendelssohn and Schubert.
