Asia Tour Blog - Day 4

Henny Box (Dec Alto 1) & Sarah Assaf (Dec Alto 3)

Today saw the long-awaited free morning, a relief for the jetlagged/hungover/food-poisoned (delete as appropriate) choir. Leopold 'Casanova' Benedict was certainly grateful for the time off after his trouserless adventures through Kowloon in the early hours, and indulged in an intimate massage with countertenor Joe Payne. Others were keen for a more active morning and trekked up the Peak for panoramic views over the city. After hours of arduous journeying they reached the summit, selfie sticks at the ready, only to be greeted by a wall of fog.

Asia Tour Blog – Day 1

Josh Cleary (Dec Tenor 3) & Toby Hession (Dec Bass 2)

On Thursday the First of September, the Choir of Clare College, Cambridge, went to Heathrow Airport in order to catch a plane to Hong Kong. Apart from the fact that Choir Administratress Alice Halstead made everyone arrive four hours early (apart from Graham Ross who strolled into the airport 10 minutes before departure), this entire segment was distinctly uneventful. Therefore pains have been made to accurately transcribe a vision that Harry Castle had during the flight, which will soon be found on his upcoming start-up, CamDream...
