Madrigal Singers in European Festival
The Madrigal Singers have officially been invited
for the second time to participate in the 20th
annual International Church Music Festival during
June 18-21, 2003 in Bern, Switzerland. Sir David
Willcocks, for many years head of the choral arts
at King’s College, Cambridge, is the festival’s
Conductor. The Artistic Director is Paul Leddington
Wright, who works with the BBC and is the music
advisor and conductor for Coventry Cathedral.
In November Mrs. Bauchspies flew to Switzerland for five days, for intensive preparation with Mr. Willcocks and the other participating conductors. On January 15 Mr. Leddington Wright arrived in Annapolis to spend a day and evening as a guest of our School, working with the Madrigal Singers.
The honor for AACS and Mrs. Bauchspies, as the founder
and director of choral arts here, is great. The
AACS Madrigal Singers have been the only high school
group invited to participate in this festival. In
addition, the group has been given the honor of
being the featured semi chorus for Dvorak's Mass
in D, and Mozart's "Regina Coeli". They
will also be recorded for part of a morning worship
service for the BBC Radio which will be broadcast
in England to a national audience.
