Somerset Chamber Choir is a choir based in the county of Somerset, England. The choir was formed in 1984 by former members of Somerset Youth Choir, and typically gives two concerts annually. Initially, these were mainly around Taunton, but in July 1992 the choir gave it first Wells Cathedral concert. Since 1994, the choir has staged an annual concert with professional orchestra and soloists at Wells Cathedral every summer, with another at King's College Chapel, Taunton earlier in the year, plus occasional other performances around Somerset and beyond.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.somersetchamberchoir.performers.co.uk/past_concerts.html )〕 Graham Caldbeck has been the choir's conductor since 1990, and Dame Emma Kirkby and Sir David Willcocks are Patrons of the choir. Emma Kirkby has performed with the choir on five occasions, the first being in Bach's St John Passion in King's College Chapel, Taunton in 1988,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.somersetchamberchoir.performers.co.uk/1984-99archive.html )〕 and most recently in Bach's Mass in B minor at Wells Cathedral in July 2011. The choir will perform at the 2012 annual concert arranged by the High Sheriff of Somerset at Wells Cathedral on 22 September.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.wellscathedral.org.uk/whats-on/?event=1756&event_month=9&event_year=2012 )〕 The choir also takes part in music education work, such as a project with South Somerset Youth Choir. ==See also== * Wells Cathedral ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Somerset Chamber Choir」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
