This popular and long-running course will be directed by Tansy Castledine, Director of Music at St George’s College in Surrey, where she has led the choir to victories in the BBC Songs of Praise Senior School Choir of the Year competition and the Barnardo’s National Choir Competition. Tansy has worked with the Bath course for several years.
An experienced team of tutors will provide wide-ranging choral training, including care and development of the voice. This course will help those preparing for RSCM Awards, and older singers will have opportunities to develop their musical leadership skills. Daily services will be sung in the school chapel, covering a broad repertoire, and at the weekend the choir will sing in Bath Abbey.
Kingswood School stands above the beautiful city of Bath, and has excellent facilities. Accommodation is in small dormitories, and a team of pastoral staff care for the children and young people.
