Programme Note
Tenebrae presents an exquisite collection of Russian choral music at the iconic St-Bartholomew-the-Great in Smithfield.
Russian choral music has been a cornerstone of Tenebrae’s repertoire since the choir’s inception, and this programme includes little-known gems rarely heard outside Russia alongside familiar favourites, including movements from Rachmaninov's Vespers.
