Members of Choir of the Earth met online in June, July and August 2023 for our popular Summer School, where they learned a diverse range of pieces with Musical Director, Ben England BEM. Singers recorded their individual performances at home, which were then mixed by our amazing audio engineers. These international performances have been accompanied by stunning imagery to help tell the story of the pieces.
