DOZENS of people enjoyed singing in harmony in a workshop led by Cantores Olicanae musical director, Jonathan Brigg.
More than 70 people attended the open music workshop held at Ilkley Grammar School last Saturday. The aim of the afternoon was to have fun exploring the joy of singing in harmony, and without the use of sheet music.
The highlights came from a six-part setting of The Rhythm of Life to a four-part setting of Shenadoah, followed by a combination of Swing Low Sweet Chariot alongside Oh When the Saints Came Marching In.
Mr Brigg also encouraged everyone to try their hand at improvising their own individual part which proved highly successful and great fun.
The event was sponsored by Ilkley Parish Council.
