- Vivace Invited to Headline Berwick Fringe Choral Showcase
-
Date Posted: Wed, 29 Apr 2026
We’re delighted to announce that Vivace Vocal Collective has been invited to headline the Choral Collective showcase as part of the inaugural Berwick Fringe Festival.
This new festival is set to become a major addition to the town’s cultural calendar, and it’s a privilege to be asked to lead the choral programme in its first year. The showcase will bring together a range of vocal groups, with Vivace closing the event.
Our performance will present a distilled version of what we do best — confident, memory-led singing with a strong focus on communication and audience connection. It’s an exciting opportunity to introduce Vivace to new audiences and to play a central role in a significant new cultural event for Berwick.
Further details on dates and tickets will be released soon.

It’s the morning after the night before, and I hope you are all feeling proud of yourselves.
What a fabulous show you produced. The nerves seemed to melt away, and there was some real, exciting music being made. I had every singer’s full attention, which makes my job so rewarding. I couldn’t, of course, see the audience, but I could hear the oohs, the wows, and other expressions of amazement. They all wanted you to do your best — and they got it.
I couldn’t pinpoint a highlight. The whole show flew by, from one high point to another. Very early this morning we watched the Strictly final, before the spoilers surfaced, and there was a lot of talk of the “journey”. When I look back at the first rehearsal and think about the end product, that’s exactly what we have all been on. I fully appreciate the work needed between rehearsals to achieve those results, and I’m also extremely grateful for the trust you put in me.
We have started something very special. I’ve got big plans for where we’re heading, and after last night, I know we can do it.
Have a lovely Christmas. It won’t be long before we start again with our next show.
Much love and gratitude,
Gary

And we are off. Great start at the launch last night. From a group of relative strangers to a cohesive choral sound in just one session Such happy faces making a joyous, string sound, perfect for the show we are putting on. We dipped our toe into various styles from the show - lyrical, festive, punchy. It's always a joy for me to see the looks on new singers' faces, when they realise they are part of something special.
