Chant training in Haverstock Hill: photos

 

Fr Matthew Jarvis OP and Dominic Bevan, led a chant day organised by the Southwell Consort in association with the Gregorian Chant Network, at St Dominic's, Haverstock Hill, the Rosary Shrine. 

It was attended by fifteen members of the Southwell Consort and about 37 members of the public. These rehearsed separately but came together to sing Lauds in the Roman Rite, and Vespers in the Dominican Rite.

The Southwell Consort is organising another event 11th July, in the course of the St Birinus Music Festival in Dorchester on Thames: see here.
