Programme Note
One of the most beautiful choral works of the 21st century will be performed at Arundel Cathedral on 18th February, in a concert conducted by the music’s composer, and featuring the internationally-acclaimed Swedish soprano Karin Dahlberg.
Choral singers from around Sussex and beyond will gather to perform Matthew Coleridge’s sublime Requiem, described by audiences as ‘mesmerising, glorious and deeply moving’.
Swedish soprano Karin Dahlberg will perform the Requiem's haunting Pie Jesu solo, as well as a duet for soprano and cello, And I Saw a New Heaven.
The choir will also be joined by rising cello star Sarah Gait, who will play the Requiem’s soaring cello solos, as well as performing JS Bach’s timeless 4th cello suite.
