HISS 2020 is under way . . .

2020 marks our 10th anniversay! Booking is now open, and they are already coming in!

We are delighted to welcome William Lyons to our team of tutors this year, offering additional scope for cornetts and sackbuts, at all levels. George Bartle, whose versatility knows no bounds, may offer a ukulele class - let us know if this appeals or appals! There may be other novelties too - and probably a birthday cake. Planning is in full swing and details of the course, which will include all the regular favourites, will be published on the website in the coming weeks.

Please take advantage of the "early bird" discount by booking your place before 1 April. Final closing date for booking is 15 June 2020.

We are looking forward to a bumper year in 2020. Do tell your friends, and remember , 6 or more booking together can obtain a group discount.

Thank you to all who have booked for HISS 2016. Early Bird booking has now officially closed.

It promises to be an exciting week! However, as ever, we could really do with more singers and players at the lower end - and I am not referring (just) to the scatological humour of some of Purcell's catches (as above) that we will be experiencing!

Yes, we mean more singers on the tenor and bass lines, and players of lower strings and wind instruments, to achieve a good balance in our ensembles. If you have missed the "early bird" and fit into these lower categories - do get in touch, if you're quick, as we may still be able to offer some incentive to be there!

I currently play mainly Alto Recorder with a harpsichordist ( chiefly Baroque ) but also play tenor and have a bass recorder which I sometimes play. I sing tenor and am quite good sight reader for instruments and voice ( not solo voice ). Am a mature musician with a lot of gigging experience on wind instruments including saxophones ( mainlyJazz Alto and Tenor ) but we are concentrating on Baroque Recorders and Harpsichord music at the moment. What do you think!!!!!

Hi Ken
I think all that would be very welcome - yes, even the sax - we've had a sax player at HISS before! I have top say, the tenor would be most welcome of all - they do seem to be a rare species, as I expect you are aware!
