Along with the first six movements of Rachmaninov's Vespers, they will perform some spine-tingling a cappella choral works from the last century and will be joined by cellist Léonie Adams for Sir John Tavener's Svyati. This should be a very memorable late-night concert experience, all in the beautiful candlelit surroundings of St Martin's, the festival's home.
