Songs and Sonnets from Shakespeare by George Shearing is the featured work at the Barnby Singing Day using the text of various Shakespearean songs and sonnets set to music in Shearing's inimitable, slightly jazzy style.

As always, the Barnby Singing Day aims to give singers the chance to try a work which is not in the standard repertoire and have fun
