Antiphon
Hexham and the Tyne Valley
Antiphon grew out of a few singers meeting to sing early church music. Repertoire has included the Tallis and White Lamentations, masses by Josquin, Dufay and Palestrina and Victoria's Requiem as well as a wealth of motets and anthems by composers of the English and continental Renaissance.
We are a sociable bunch of around 20 members and although we are not recruiting we are always pleased to hear from good singers who share a love of early music and can sight sing well and hold a part. We practise on a Tuesday night in St John Lee church hall which is about 3 miles outside Hexham and our conductor is John Roper.
