Tewkesbury Abbey Schola Cantorum at the Abingdon Episcopal Church 4-3-09, Video 9


This is our 9th and final video of the actual Tewkesbury Abbey Schola Cantorum live performance series. The next video we are going to produce is a series of pictures that were taken during and after the event and we are going to add some background music to the slide show video. We hope you have enjoyed this mini series. We once again want to thank the choir for allowing us to host these videos for the world to see and enjoy.

We have added a link to this post for the Tewkesbury Abbey Schola Cantorum USA blog spot web site so that you can view their tour while here in the USA.

Tewkesbury Abbey Schola Cantorum at the Abingdon Episcopal Church 4-3-09, Video Number 8


This is our 8th video in our mini series. Each video we put up takes us about 3 to 4 hours of processing time from start to finish on each one done. The end results though are well worth the time if just one person truly enjoys even only one of the videos. We hope you enjoy the mini series as much as we have creating them for you.

Tewkesbury Abbey Schola Cantorum 5, With Links For CD Sales

Here is the link to the store in Tewkesbury Abbey if you are interested in purchasing any of their musical CD's. I am hoping they will produce a DVD of their music. Click Here to go to their store.

Now this video I want to point out the lead singer. Here is a guy with a very potential future. A great voice. Need to talk him into quitting smoking though. (I shouldn't speak, but I am older and my voice isn't going to get me anywhere in the musical field). I had the pleasure of speaking with him for a few moments and he is as gracious as he is talented. I'll let the video speak for itself from here though.

At the end of this video is father Steve. Another gracious man with a great sense of humor and a wonderful speaker. We had the pleasure of speaking with him on numerous occasions and may we say that the folks back in England are very blessed to have him as one of their own. If we could take him away from there and have him here, I'm sure that would be happily arranged.

Tewkesbury Abbey Schola Cantorum 4


This is the 4th video in our mini series. We have about two or three more to go. Then we are going to produce a picture slide show video with background music. Hope everyone is enjoying the videos.

Tewkesbury Abbey Schola Cantorum at the Abingdon Episcopal Church This Past Friday Night April 3rd


This choir was incredible. Very moving. They are here from the Gloucester Region of England and put on a wonderful event. We had a chance to meet with some of them and what a wonderful bunch they are and incredibly talented. This was their 5th year here and we can't wait til next year when they join us again. If you missed this event and would like one more chance to see them, they will be singing with the regular choir at the Abingdon Episcopal Church this coming Sunday morning, 10:00 AM service, April 5th, 2009.

We would also like to thank them for allowing us to both photograph and video them. Because this is not normally allowed, this video is exclusive to Gloucester Links & News and is not being hosted on YouTube or any other hosting sites that we would normally use. Plus this hosting on this site will be for a limited time as well.

We are going to put up a page soon with photos from the event for everyone to see. The choir is internationally known and recognized for their live performances and recordings. We will see if we can come up with a link to where their recordings are sold in the event anyone would like to order one of their CD's. We will also see if we can talk them into producing a DVD recording as it's the live event that makes it so moving when you see and hear them them.

We look forward to their return next year and wish them well on their journey home.
