Village Voices

 

Imagine, if you will, a rash promise made at a party to start a choir of professed non-singers. Imagine likewise, the look of sheer pleasure after a few practices when they sang their first harmony.

 

Stretch your mind even further into a space-time dimension in which they’re singing original songs in four-part harmony. Add sheer joy in singing together and you have, in a nutshell, Village Voices.

St Cybi Consort of Voices

 

St Cybi Consort of Voices. Drew has recently formed the consort whose express purpose is to bring Choral Evensong to churches in S.E. Wales, particularly to those who wouldn't otherwise have the resources. The group is now 20-strong and growing

Flying Shepherds

 

For over a decade Drew ran the  Flying Shepherds. They  became well known for their choral performances, both sacred and secular. Taking their inspiration from a shared love of vocal music, and their name from a musical mistake, the Flying Shepherds performed in South Wales, Dorset, Essex, Sussex and Pembrokehire.

 

Equally at home with madrigals, motets, and modern part-songs, the choir sang unaccompanied repertoire from 6 centuries of sublime choral music interspersed with poems and solo items.
