Members of the Cantiones Choir, which is based in Oswestry, are having to rehearse on line, from their own homes.

Their director, composer, Martin Bussey will be leading the virtual choir practices over the coming weeks.

The mixed choir will be rehearsing John M Rutter's Requiem, one of the best know sacred pieces of music.

A spokesman for the choir said that the rehearsals were with the hope of some sort of performance in April.

"It is an exciting start to 2021, bring on the singing," they said.

Last year the choir was able to enjoy outdoor singing together from the end of September after six months of online rehearsals.

Members took part in socially distanced performances in Cae Glas Park in Oswestry.
