The Entente Chorale. Choirs from Northern France will be coming to sing with
London's political choirs plus a few singers from other English choirs.
There will be a free public concert on Saturday 6th December at Myatt Garden Primary School, Rokeby Road, Brockley, SE4 starting at 8pm.
This will degenerate into an informal social - probably ending in more singing.
On Sunday morning we will all gather to sing at various places on the South Bank: outside City Hall, at the Tate Modern and at the London Eye. Subject to change depending on the weather.
