Programme Note
The Brandenburg Choral Festival of London welcomes two small choirs to this concert in the Autumn Series: Voce Nova, Royal Holloway's newest vocal ensemble, and Omnia Voices, comprising some of the capital's top semi-professional choral singers. Voce Nova, directed by Jason Ching, will perform a variety of sacred motets spanning the centuries, but all contemplative and atmospheric in mood, making them suitable for Compline, the final service of the day in the Christian tradition. The choir's repertoire will include Lotti’s Crucifixus, as well as works by Palestrina, Rheinberger and several contemporary composers. Omnia Voices celebrate the great English Choral Tradition with works by Elgar, Harris, Parry and Stanford, as well as a more recent work by Richard Rodney Bennett and Nigel Short's arrangement of The Dying Soldier. To finish the concert the concert they will sing Herbert Howell's serene Requiem.
Join us at St Botolph's to marvel at these talented singers as they take on some beautiful and moving a cappella repertoire.
