The concert will be held from 7.30pm in Cope Auditorium (Edward Barnsley Building). All are welcome to attend, with tickets costing £7 for the public and £5 for Loughborough University students and under 16s. Tickets can be booked in advance via Eventbrite or purchased on the door (cash sales only).

This year’s Spring Concert has a nature theme and will open with a performance of ‘Twelve Trees’, with music by Katy Lavinia Cooper and words written and compiled by Catriona Downie. Inspired by trees native to the British Isles, the twelve pieces that make up this work delve into the history, folk lore and traditional music of these lands. 

The second half of the programme picks up on the theme of the natural world, with music by Bob Chilcott and Vaughan Williams, arrangements of familiar folk songs and solo performances from members of the choir.

The University Choir is made up of students, staff, alumni and members of the local community. They rehearse on Monday evenings during term time and welcome new members.
