Requiem To Cancer 2016
Wow! We did it. And most of us survived. A huge thank you to everyone involved.
Running Total: £31,456.53 + €50
The running total should now probably be a 'final total'. Well done everyone. That is a number that makes it all worthwhile.
From the start I said that if the event was a success I would run it every couple of years. See you in two years!

Requiem To Cancer took place on 2nd-3rd September 2016 at St Paul's Church, Covent Garden.
Requiem To Cancer is a singing event in aid of Cancer Research UK. The Mozart, Chilcott and Duruflé Requiems will be rehearsed and performed over a period of 24 hours. There will also be a runthrough of the Fauré Requiem in the early hours of Saturday morning for a bit of light relief. There will also be the World Premiere of an Anthem written for the occasion by Cecilia McDowall. It is named 'Now is the Time', the title being taken from the words of Marie Curie that have been set.
Conducting duties will be shared between Neil Ferris, Jeremy Jackman and Joanna Tomlinson. They will be ably accompanied by Michael Higgins, Nicola Rose and Simon Gregory. Soloists are Jocelyn Somerville, Eleanor Dann, Beth Moxon, Tom Smith and Kieran Seymour.
