Songs & Images

The Meljon Singers are one of London's most accomplished and enterprising chamber choirs. Established in 1990, and with a rehearsal base at St John's Seven Kings, their concerts include music as diverse as Palestrina's 16th century polyphony, Romantic classics like Brahms' Ein Deutsches Requiem, modern minimalist masters such as John Tavener and Arvo Pärt and the wealth of new choral writing from all over the world.

Their next concert is on Saturday 7 July 2007, 7.30pm, at St Mary's Church, South Woodford. Women of Note will feature music by women composers including Rebecca Clarke, Eleanor Daley and other "Unsung Heroines."

If you follow the link to St Mary's Woodford, check out their Faith & Image forum for all who share an interest in art as a medium of spiritual expression. The group is both ecumenical and inter-faith, and seeks to gain insight and understanding from all art forms, all traditions and cultures. Their next meeting is on Thursday 28th June, 8.00pm, when there will be an illustrated presentation by Luis and Carol Garrido, members of the Blake Society, on 'The Life of Christ through the paintings of William Blake'.
