Programme Note
What would be on your list of the best choral music ever written? This is the question that the Cheltenham Bach Choir and their conductor David Crown have asked for their Summer Classics programme. From ‘Zadok’ to ‘I was glad’, the Barber ‘Adagio’ to ‘The Armed Man’, this is a programme for everyone, with some of the most sublime choral music you will hear anywhere. Book early for this wonderful programme in which we will also be joined by rising star mezzo-soprano, Jess Dandy, and accompanist Adam Johnson. Truly an evening of delights!
