Other
The Choir of Gonville and Caius College Cambridge, St. Mary's Church, Saffron Walden
A free concert; a programme of pieces from 1600's to 1900s, then Fauré's Requiem. Lovely having voices fill the space; Toby went off down an organ rabbit hole and his fascination with the music of distortion.
In music of purity corner, I wonder (perhaps you could answer if you're in a choir) if people use a different voice for solos? Or the same singing voice throughout (adapting for the tone of the piece) and the difference in sound with multiple singers just comes from the number of voices, or whether there's a modulation of tone to better merge the voices.
