Programme Note
This concert celebrates the richness of English choral tradition. From Purcell’s solemn Remember not, Lord, our offences to Parry’s majestic I was glad, we journey through the evolution of English sacred music. Cecilia McDowall’s A Fancy of Folksongs adds a contemporary twist, weaving traditional tunes with fresh harmonies. Elgar’s From the Bavarian Highlands closes the program with a lively and lyrical homage to English pastoral life. Together, these works showcase the power and beauty of English voices through the centuries.
