It's that time again when those of you who are brave/mad enough to sing outside in the freezing rain* get the chance to do so!
That's right, we're putting on another #PDtPXmas extravaganza at the Trafalgar Square Christmas Tree on Dec.24th!

TIL that if you sing in the rain for 75 mins your music folder will end up resembling an ancient palimpsest! Huge thanks to the heroic singers who braved the non-stop downpour & brought seasonal splendour to the crowds at Trafalgar Square, making lots of money for good causes!

Would have loved it - but anchored in South Wales. If that applies to anyone else, can I suggest an alternative evening’s musical entertainment?
Here's some good news to brighten your day - the #PDtPXmas carols at Trafalgar Square will be taking place again this year! Sunday December 18th, 5pm - details and registration here: polyphonydownthepub.com/2022…

Should’ve been singing with this lovely lot tonight, but (as I mentioned a couple of days ago) it’s been cancelled - but you can still make donations to @ChoirwithNoName who we would have been collecting for.
3/3 We'd therefore like to ask all our friends & followers to consider making a donation: choirwithnoname.org/get-invo…
Again, hugely disappointing not to be bringing Palestrina, Victoria & Bodenschatz to Londoners but your donations will mean something good comes out of it! Cheers!

It's only because you weren't offering gin that you were short of altos, of course

Ha! No, they come for the quality insults, right @sjoh0050?
Sensible decision but how disappointing for you all! Hope you can sing out again soon. (PS how the bleedin’ hell did you get 16 tenors?were you offering free beer?)

Gosh I'm glad I was already sitting down. It's been a *very* strange year.

1\3 Very sorry to report that we've had to withdraw from Thursday's carols. Huge thnx to the 90 singers (90! incl. 16 tenors!) who had volunteered to sing & sorry to disappoint you all. Gutting not least because we wanted to raise money for our chosen charity @ChoirwithNoName.
Like the Ghost of Christmas Past suddenly haunting your timeline, #pdtp is inviting you to join us for carols, chorales & motets at Trafalgar Square, 5pm on Thursday December 23rd. Details and registration here: polyphonydownthepub.com/2021… #weareback #sortof #pdtpxmas

2/3 @ChoirwithNoName does amazing work helping homeless & other marginalised people through the joy of singing. We've collected 100s of £s for them over the years & wanted to do so again this year but like so many others our plans have been thwarted by this ongoing crisis.

Hello pdtp pals! Have been off Twitter for a while as my wife & I were awaiting a special delivery! Our lovely daughter arrived 3 wks ago & I'm already looking forward to her Polyphony Down the Pub debut - in 2038! Stay safe & hope to be singing & boozing with you all again soon!

C'mon, all you #pdtp regulars: you're used to singing double choir motets while half-cut, so knocking out a recording of the Hallelujah chorus before midnight on Sunday should be a doddle.
🎤Sing Hallelujah with the BBC Philharmonic! 🎶
Would you like to be part of a national choir singing The Hallelujah Chorus from Handel’s Messiah for A Celebration for Ascension Day @BBCRadio4?
Details here: bbc.in/3fDszPQ
Deadline: 11.59pm on Sunday 17 May

We're a family-friendly account so we couldn't possibly direct you towards the smut to be found via the link below. #downwiththissortofthing #carefulnow
Naughty but niche.
LIVE at 6pm for those who like to singalong with 17th century Italian mannerist erotica. @PubPolyphony @Music_at_York @clarewilkinson @nickmulroy @brightfest @doricoofficial @Perciusonline

Even in lockdown, I'm unable to escape the horror of the English madrigal lyric! #HappyMayDay to you too, @carolinefiennes!
