Join us to form a group to learn and help record the original composition Britheg Brown by Welsh composer Emma Daman Thomas in collaboration with St Brides Major Primary School Choir, the High Brown Fritillary Project and artist Bettina Furnée.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Learn & record a beautiful, original song about the endangered High Brown Fritillary butterfly.

Work with renowned choir leader Jenny Moore (F*Choir, Chapter Arts, BBC Singers, The Barbican, 15+ years of experience).

Join 6-10 singers in 3-part harmony. Some singing experience and the ability to learn by ear is helpful, but no professional experience required!

This is a voluntary role.
