Pirma Choral Artist Welcomes Norway's Fanakoret

Prima Choral Artists are hosting Norway's Fanakoret at St Olave's Church on Sunday 6 September, a choral visit that brings a Norwegian ensemble over to York for a single afternoon. The two groups will share the bill, with the local choir welcoming the visitors to the city.

Fanakoret comes from Norway, and this is one of those occasions where a visiting group joins forces with a local one rather than playing a solo set. Prima Choral Artists are based here in York, so the afternoon is a collaboration between the two. It's a choral concert in the truest sense: voices and a church, with the visiting choir as the main draw.

St Olave's is on Marygate, right in the heart of the city, so it's an easy one to get to without needing a car. The concert runs from 4:00 to 5:30 PM, which puts it in that late-afternoon slot that works well if you're not keen on a late night on a Sunday. It's a ninety-minute programme, so you'll be out and home well before dinner.

Entry is free, which makes it a low-stakes way to spend a Sunday afternoon. You can book your tickets through Eventbrite, and the whole thing takes place at St Olave's Church, Marygate, York YO30 7DR, on Sunday 6 September from 4:00 to 5:30 PM.
