ScholaTour Australia - February 2025
The Schola will sing concerts and services in Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide on what is the choir's first trip to Australia. Further details of our itinerary will follow. We are looking for support so do please get in touch if you would like to assist with the financing of the tour. We are also very keen to reach out to any Old Vaughanians who live in Australia. Please get in touch by email - schola@cvms.co.uk
Very pleased to give the first details of the Schola's new recording, Jesu, meine Freude (Jesus, my Joy) to be released in October.
Recorded in 2023, the album contains music prepared for a visit to the Thomaskirche in Leipzig, the final resting place of JS Bach.
Over a weekend in February last year, the Schola sang for the three principal services of this famous church. Our music included Bach's Motet, Jesu, meine Freude, alongside works by Byrd, Palestrina and Schola patron Sir James MacMillan's Miserere.
In addition, the recording contains a performance of Zerfließe, mein Herze from Bach's St John Passion, sung by Malakai Bayoh, alongside musicians from St James's Baroque.
More details including some early bonus tracks will follow soon
The Schola can be heard on two tracks on the new album from Finnish symphonic rock band Nightwish. The boys added their voices at Abbey Road last October. The album, entitled Yesterwynde, comes out on 20 September.
