Programme Note

Soloists from I Fagiolini join their director Robert Hollingworth and the young voices of The 24 for two works from the heart of Bach’s sacred catalogue, including a cantata that exhorts us to ‘have faith, faith and let the rest of the world grumble’ and - a mass that contrasts splendid choruses and moving arias where individual voices and solo instruments duet. Alongside the music,

Alex Jennings reads two of George Herbert’s greatest poems, including his great meditation that imagines the thoughts of Christ on the cross, asking ‘Was ever grief like mine?’

This is one of 55 events forming the Ryedale Summer Festival 2018.
