Repertoire

The YES Singers prides itself on programming a diverse range of music. This ensures our members receive a good grounding in choral singing. A typical repertoire may include:

Composer Piece
Thomas Tallis If ye love me
Bob Chilcott Singing by Numbers
Butterfly's Son
Traditional O re mi (arr. Mike Brewer)
Franz Schubert Stabat Mater
Anton Bruckner Locus Iste
Jim Papoulis Give Us Hope
Can You Hear?
Gabriel Faure Pavanne
Imant Raminsh Song of the Stars
Irving Berlin Blue Skies (arr. Zegree)

A programme such as this includes traditional, sacred, gospel and jazz music, and in two or three languages. Some pieces are for full choir, others male or female singers only. It is this variety that makes a YES Singers course so rewarding and concert so enjoyable.
