Programme Note
The Cheltenham Bach Choir's annual summer concert features two wonderful pieces this year. Will Todd’s Mass in Blue is an exuberant, funky and cool jazz take on a mass, where we will be joined by the fabulous Hannah Davey on the soaring vocals. Complementing this is Argentine composer, Ariel Ramírez’ Misa Criolla - an extraordinary and beautiful work, made famous in José Carreras’ recording. For both works we will be joined by the Dom Franks Jazz Quintet – some of the country’s top jazz musicians and percussionists. A summer’s evening concert that will appeal to all ages – don’t miss it!
