Open Singing Day - Verdi Requiem
Join us for an exhilarating day singing the incomparable Requiem by Verdi, under the inspiring leadership of the EAC's Founding Director Leslie Olive. EAC has sung Verdi's Requiem in a number of prestigious performing venues, including the Barbican and The Queen Elizabeth Hall. We are planning to perform this great piece again in September 2025, singing from memory, in the Congress Theatre, Eastbourne.
You could be part of that experience by joining us as a visiting singer; more details at: https://www.englisharts.org/join-2024/visiting-singers
Fee
£25 including music hire ( Ricordi edition ). Full time students (aged over 17 years) £5.
Coffee, tea and cake will be provided during the day for a small donation. Please bring a packed lunch, or visit one of Reigate's many cafés and shops, all within easy walking distance.
How to Pay
You can buy tickets here or just turn up on the day, leaving good time to register and pick up music. [ https://www.englisharts.org/products/verdi-requiem-workshop-11-jan-2025 ]. Advance booking is recommended, so that we can ensure music is available for all who need it.
Cars can be parked in the Prep School car-park opposite the church, or in neighbouring streets. Please note parking on the road directly outside the church is time-limited.
There are two parking bays for the disabled by the lych gate in Chart Lane (limited to 3 hours), and a slightly sloping uneven path up to the west door of the church. No steps into the church, but a few bumps over the threshhold into a flat seating area in the nave. There is a toilet for the disabled on the same level.
