Just Singin’ grew out of a nightclass which was offered from Early 2003 by Birnam Institute and led by folksinger, and trained voice teacher, Christine Kydd. With Christine still a very big part of our culture, Just Singin’ is now a membership-based organisation and charity in its own right. Its programme of events and tutors is coordinated by an active volunteer committee and their work is complemented by a number of supportive group members. We have just released a CD called A Cup o' Kindness, made possible by funding from Griffin Wind Farms Community Fund. It is available on iTunes. less

The group’s repertory is quite wide and eclectic and ranges from sacred and secular Early music to contemporary works. Besides singing some of the most important Renaissance and Baroque masterpieces, by composers such as Victoria, Palestrina, Byrd, Monteverdi, Purcell, Handel and Bach, the group has also premiered several contemporary pieces and made first modern auditions of many Portuguese Renaissance and Baroque works. Christopher Bochmann, Ivan Moody, Bob Chilcott, Luis Tinoco, Eurico Carrapatoso and Vasco Mendonça are some of the composers who dedicated works to Grupo Vocal Olisipo.
Grupo Vocal Olisipo attended several masterclasses led by some of the world leading vocal ensembles, such as The King's Singers and the Hilliard Ensemble and was coached in the performance of Baroque music by Jill Feldman.
In 1995, the group won an honorary mention in the Portuguese Musical Youth Contest and was a finalist ... less

Impromptu appearances during shopping hours will be followed by a live concert at 8.00pm on Sunday July 6.
However, we also hope to raise sufficient funds to record this so that it can become more widely available, and are appealing to as many people as possible to participate in the project by giving whatever they would like, in return for a reward or perk. It's quite a good way of pre-ordering the CD ! If you feel inspired to contribute please go to: http://igg.me/at/stpeterssingers
More information about St Peter's Singers, including details of forthcoming concerts, recitals and services, can be found on on the choir's website http://www.stpeters-singers.org... less

Fair daffodils, we weep to see
You haste away so soon;
As yet the Early-rising sun
Has not attain'd his noon.
Stay, stay until the hasting day
Has run but to the evensong,
And, having pray'd together, we
Will go with you along.
We have short time to stay, as you,
We have as short a spring;
As quick a growth to meet decay,
As you, or anything.
We die, as your hours do, and dry away,
Like to the Summer's rain,
Or as the pearls of morning's dew,
Ne'er to be found again. less
