The Apollo5 concert diary this month has seen them perform in the Middle East and UK, with further concerts in Europe and the UK to come.

ChoirFest Middle East  saw members of Apollo5 work in tandem with the VCM Foundation to sing and give workshops in Abu Dhabi and Dubai

Back in the UK they performed in Kington Church to conclude a project with Hereford Cathedral School, which involved a prior visit to work with the school’s Colla Voce choir.

The next 2 festival concerts are in Europe, firstly at the Heidelberger Frühling festival where the group gives it’s own recital and takes part in a joint concert with the French Baroque Ensemble Masques and the Cairo Jazz Station.

On March 22nd the group will be in Spain at the Portico da Paradiso Festival in Ourense, before giving a recital Lyddington, UK, on 30 March.

The repertoire for these concerts is drawn from the group’s classical and lighter folk and jazz repertoire, much of it recently recorded for release on the VCM label in May on their new album entitled “O Radiant Dawn”.

Interwoven in this concert schedule is the group’s education work with schools and choirs as part of the VCM Foundation.
