Programme Note
Our concert comprises choral music based on texts from the Song of Songs. Over the ages, composers have found these texts to be a great source of inspiration.
The concert programme takes the listener on a journey of inner peace, combining music from over eight centuries ago with that written by contemporary composers. There’s a special emphasis on works by the great Italian Renaissance composer Palestrina, born 500 years ago.
The choral works will be complemented by piano solos by Karen Kingsley.
