Last year, Three Spires Singers introduced a scheme for Cornwall Music Service Trust students aimed at encouraging more young people to come and enjoy Three Spires Singers' concerts. This year Three Spires Singers would like to extend the invitation to all instrumental students.
- Tickets are available at £3 for any student. To cover the eventuality that younger students might need to be accompanied, we offer a free ticket for an adult accompanying a group of 5 youngsters with the £3 tickets.
- These tickets must be arranged with Penny Price, not Hall for Cornwall. If people would like to buy tickets they can email, text or call Penny, whose contact details are:
Landline: 01872 865097
Mobile: 07858 941869

The orchestra also has many instrumental teachers amongst its players so you might spot your teacher too!

Haydn’s Creation7.30 pm Saturday 1st April 2017 in Truro Cathedral
Three Spires last performed Haydn’s Creation ten years ago (following another ten years’ gap before that) and it’s high time this tuneful and optimistic work was given another airing. Do you remember the extraordinarily spooky (and musically ahead of its time) depiction of the dark emptiness of “Chaos” at the beginning? The Big Bang of light? Or the evocation of the sun rising, and the simply beautiful moment when “the softer beams” of the “silver moon…steps on through silent night”?
The Creation is so popular that it has been performed more often than all Haydn’s other choral works put together. He wanted to “cheer people up” and the work is full of optimism and confidence in an orderly world. Such is the joyous sweep of the music, it is surely possible to set any doubts about that world-view to one side for the evening!
Soloists will be Cheryl Rosevear, Soprano, Ross Scanlon, Tenor, and Timothy Nelson, Baritone. The Three Spires Orchestra will be led by Nick Whiting and the performance will as usual be conducted by Christopher Gray.
