Regent Brass
Regent Brass is a 28-piece brass band based in Chalk Farm, North London. Founded in 1985 to cater for young brass players in Brent that had left the youth set-up, the band has since risen to the upper levels of the brass band scene, currently under Musical Director Alan Duguid, and performing regular concerts of innovative, exciting modern brass band repertoire. The organisation also incorporates Regent Community Brass which was formed in 2012 to provide an outlet for local musicians, both young and old, to get involved with playing with a brass band.
Olavskoret
Olavskoret, the Choir of the Norwegian Church in London, was established in 2012 to enhance the regular worship at the church. Around 16 regular members meet two or three times a month to rehearse a repertoire of SATB anthems, carols and national songs depending on the season.
Over the years, the choir has attracted keen amateur, professional and semi-professional singers who are either Norwegian or have a strong interest in Norway. Olavskoret aims to sing for one service a month at the Norwegian Church and has also performed in Westminster Abbey, St Martin-in-the-Fields Church and with Sissel Kyrkjebø for the ‘baptism’ of MS Viking Sea. The choir is delighted, once again, to be invited to sing in Southwark Park for the 17th May celebrations!
