Add to my Calendar 25-11-2023 19:30 25-11-2023 21:30 36 Danesborough Chorus Autumn Concert For the opening concert of our 49th season, Danesborough Chorus is joined by organist Paul Carr and the Tim Hawes Brass Ensemble for a performance of John Rutter’s Gloria, one of his most popular choral works. Paul Patterson’s Magnificat, a work written for brass ensemble, percussion and organ, is both dramatic and exciting, displaying rhythmic variety and instrumental colour. Bruckner’s rousing motet Ecce Sacerdos may be familiar to listeners as it was performed by the Monteverdi Choir at the coronation of King Charles III in May 2023. In its restrained beauty the unaccompanied motet Locus iste offers a complete contrast to Afferentur regi composed for choir and trombones. Instrumental pieces for brass ensemble and organ will also feature in the concert. St Mary's Church, Woburn DD/MM/YYYY
