Chamber Choir Viva La Musica has become recognised locally as one of the more exciting vocal ensembles performing across ​the East Midlands.  The Loughborough-based choir attracts singers from a wide area.  Its repertoire ranges across the centuries and embraces both sacred and secular music in various styles. Simon Lumby conducts the choir.

‘Now is the month of Maying’ is a concert celebrating nature and the season.  It will include a selection of madrigals and works by Lauridsen, Finzi and Rachmaninoff.

This late-afternoon concert will last approximately an hour and a quarter. There will be refreshments to follow.
