We are delighted that Tony Backhouse will be returning to Bath on his 2017 UK tour. Tony is one of the leaders in the Australasian a cappella movement. He works with the passionate and exciting African-American repertoire, focusing on spirituals, gospel songs old and new, choral and quartet styles, and embracing South African church songs, doo-wop, R&B and pop. The emphasis is on harmony, collective improvisation and freedom of expression. No music-reading skills are required, and you may record the sessions.
On his last visit to Bath in 2013, eighty singers enjoyed an utterly joyous, immensely rewarding and inspiring singing workshop with Tony, learning seven wonderful songs. Join us for a fabulous day’s singing. Open to all – no experience necessary and you do not need to be a member of a Songways choir.
