Programme Note
The Brandenburg Choral Festival of London welcomes Cambridge University Musical Society Symphony Chorus and Percussion Ensemble for this exciting programme featuring Eric Whitacre's magnificent Cloudburst. The chorus will also perform works by Aaron Copland and Nicholas Maw alongside the London Premiere of Toby Young's Nature's Beauty, which was commissioned by the choir and will be premiered in Cambridge on the 4th March. The concert will also feature mezzo-soprano Carris Jones performing excerpts from Copland's Twelve Poems of Emily Dickinson and pianist Leo Popplewell providing some contrast with a movement of Schumann's delightful Fantasiestücke for solo piano.
