  • Helen’s tour of the USA ’24

    Helen kicked off her workshop tour in Asheville NC on 18th September, hosted by Yuri Woodstock. Yuri has been teaching Helen’s music to his choir ‘Hark’ for many years – see the video above of Helen teaching her song ‘Love Is The Power’ to an enthusiastic crowd at Homewood Castle. She extended her stay in North Carolina and led workshops at the Love Song Gathering deep in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

    From there Helen flew to Vermont and led two workshops for the Brattleboro Womens Chorus, hosted by Becky Graber. The last stop was Annapolis where Helen ran a workshop hosted by Elizabeth Melvin. Unfortunately Helen wasn’t able to do the workshop planned for the beginning of the month in San Francisco – hopefully another time!

  • Return

    Helen wrote ‘Return’ several years ago and it fast became a favourite with Glorious Chorus and other choirs around the country. A song about autumn, Return is a beautiful celebration of the natural cycle of the seasons, and how everything returns back to source before coming to life again in the spring. This superb rendition is by The Great Sea Choir led by Helen Brignall. The score is available on the Scores Page.

  • Singing with Helen this year

    You can sing with Helen at her London Big Sings once a term and various day workshops and weekend retreats around the country. Helen also runs her Greek singing holiday on the island of Paros every May/June, and the 2025 dates & prices are now available to see on the Camps/Holidays page. This July Helen will be teaching at Earthsong Camp in Ireland for the first time. This and all her events are listed on the Upcoming Events listings at the right of this page

  • Helen’s workshop tour of the States 2024

    In September Helen visited the United States to do a mini workshop tour of the east coast, responding to the many choir leaders who had bought her music over the years. This tour encompassed Asheville NC, the Love Song gathering in NC, Brattleboro VT & Annapolis, ML. She had a fabulous time! You can see more details on the Links Page.
