We sing a varied mix of music from traditional ballads and songs from The West End shows, to popular numbers. We welcome new adult members with or without prior choral experience. You do need some musical ability, but it's not essential to read music. Rehearsals are in Wembdon, near Bridgwater, on a Tuesday evening.

The group's first piece—William Byrd’s “This sweet and merry month of May”, whose ending celebrated Queen Elizabeth I with The words And greet Eliza with a rhyme: O beauteous Queen of Second Troy, Take well in worth a simple toy. provided a great name for The group. Eliza’s Toyes was born, and existed every summer in Madison, Wisconsin. In 2008, a fair number of singers who were in Eliza's Toyes are living in Madison once again. Thus we gaTher, outside of The Festival, for The joy of music making. It is our pleasure to continue sharing this wonderful body of music with you for The second year!  less

ABOUT The MUSIC: This arrangement is split into four ideas all linked togeTher generationally. The first verse is meant to symbolize a departed parent comforting Their grown child from The great beyond. To be more specific, The parent is singing this lullaby to Their child in a dream. I felt The Latin word “Lux” (Light) was an appropriate fit for The imagery of sunlight and heavenly light. The second verse represents The grown child waking up from The dream (first verse). This verse is meant to be bittersweet raTher than strictly sad or angry. While There is grieving, The melody imparts comfort through nostalgia and memories. When The second verse gloriously blooms into The third, this represents everlasting love shining through even The darkest of times. Although gone, one will live in The heart and memory of anoTher forever. Finally, The reiteration of The first verse represents The grown child singing The same lullaby to Their own baby, impartin...    less
