Programme Note
Calton Consort returns to the newly restored Canongate Kirk for a journey through the profound emotional landscapes of the human voice. This curated program explores the intersection of sacred tradition and modern sonic depth, centered in the heart of Edinburgh’s Royal Mile.
The performance features:
* Schnittke: The monumental Slavonic intensity of his Concerto for Choir.
* Thorvaldsdóttir: The ethereal, Icelandic atmospheres of Heyr þú oss á himnum.
* Grigorjeva: The meditative stillness and haunting beauty of On Leaving.
Join us for an hour of reflection and evocative choral music in one of the city's most iconic acoustic spaces.
