The concert uses as its backbone motets from Tomás Luis de Victoria's Tenebrae Responsories, interspersing these with complimentary works by contemporary composers James MacMillan, Matthew Martin and Paul Mealor, and pieces by Byrd, Elgar, Lotti, Rachmaninov and Tchaikovsky as well as traditional chant. This concert will last approximately one hour without an interval and will be performed by candlelight. A combined ticket offer is available for this concert and the later concert at St Martin’s.
