Programme Note
On 28th June Cappella Nova say farewell to Tony Shield, our conductor and musical director, who is retiring after 24 years of music-making with the choir.
In this special concert we mark Tony’s contribution with a programme based on some of our favourite music both serious and light-hearted, featuring a wide range of composers including Rachmaninov, Stanford, Elgar, Vaughan Williams and Parry. The programme also includes Britten’s celebration of Saint Cecilia - the patron saint of music.
A charity concert in aid of the Genesis Trust
