Re: UK Cathedral Concerts in 2024

So good to hear about these concerts. I attended the Chester concert as part of the autumn tour back in 2010 and what a wonderful experience it was. That was back in the bad (good?) old days of queueing up to get the best possible seats and I still remember the joy and anticipation while mingling wi...

Re: 2023 US Tour

How wonderful to hear such glowing reviews from the contributors here. I'd expect nothing less from our favourite boychoir. :D So wish I could be there to enjoy the experience. Having said that, I was lucky enough to see them no less that THREE times in England last year, so I suppose I can't compla...

Re: 2023 - Two UK Concerts in December

A friend told me about this yesterday. It's great news for those of us who can't make the upcoming US concerts and haven't had our usual fix of Libera this summer due to no UK concert. I will most likely only be able to attend one show, I wonder if they will be the same show (Christmas concerts?), s...

Re: Libera at Hibiya Music Festival, June 3-4

Good for them! I would love to go to Japan but it's out of the question for me at the moment :( Still no word on a UK show this spring. I'm really hoping they will have one. It does appear Luca will have a solo concert in late May. In the absence of a full Libera concert, that would be a very worthw...

Re: St John's Smith SQ Concert 2022 - Dec 4th

I am interested! Flying from Texas on Saturday. Would love to attend a Libera Christmas Concert while in London. I last saw them in 2019 at SJSS. I registered on this site to dm, but new members can't dm. Due to a seat upgrade, I have a spare ticket in row L if anyone is interested. Probably not th...

Re: St John's Smith SQ Concert 2022 - Dec 4th

Due to a seat upgrade, I have a spare ticket in row L if anyone is interested. Probably not the best view in the house being about 10 rows back but certainly could be worse.

DM if anyone interested :D

Re: St John's Smith SQ Concert 2022 - Dec 4th

They deserve a full house God bless them :D

What is Christmas without a Libera Christmas Concert? I'm glad that this will be a full concert unlike last year's shorter shows.

It'll come around before we know it!

Re: Summer Concerts 2022 - Brighton & Chichester

Also, it appears to me as though Nathan has become a high note specialist, doing descants and maybe sharing some first treble duties? I’ve watched this clip many times (☺️) and worked out that he’s hitting the highest notes, in this footage anyway.💖 Nathan is simply amazing, he blew me away at both...

Re: Summer Concerts 2022 - Brighton & Chichester

Great to read all the comments and reviews/memories of the shows. What a blast they were! :D I did get to the 'mini-shows' last December in SJSS but these were my first full concerts in some time and boy, were they worth the wait. I'd never been to Brighton before but it was a lovely setting and bas...

Re: St John's Smith SQ Concert 2022 - Dec 4th

One more looking for anyone who might have a spare half-decent seat for the December show. Unfortunately I came to the party late and all the premium seats have sold out. I'll buy one of the cheap seats anyway though would very much appreciate an up-close view. Having just attended the two wonderful...

Re: Summer Concerts 2022 - Brighton & Chichester

How wonderful to have these shows to attend, especially as I missed Ely :| these new shows have come as a total surprise :shock: But a good one. :lol: I haven't been to either venue before so that will also be interesting. I do hope they get good attendances. I recall being in Chester in 2009 and wa...

Re: Concert in Ely Cathedral, May 2022

Great to read all the reviews and see some piccies of the night. :D At one point, I was hoping to attend but various factors combined to ruling it out for me this time around. Was lucky enough to catch the St. John's Christmas concert and hope to get back this year for a full show hopefully. So glad...

Re: Robert Prizeman has passed away

Such sad news, he wasn't even 70. Thank you Robert for all the memories of wonderful Libera concerts over the years. I haven't seen them for a few years now but was hoping, and am still hoping, to catch them this December. I have no idea now whether the choir will carry on as before, but I hope they...

Re: New UK Concert 23 April 2016

Nice to see the reviews here, thanks to those that took the time to write them. I agree with Yorkie that Sacris Solemnis was the stand out song of the evening for me...I've always loved that song and I think the last time I had heard it live was in Dublin in 2009, so it was a very welcome addition o...
