Brahms Requiem for Remembrance

You are warmly invited to join us for a performance of Brahms’ Ein Deutsches Requiem on Remembrance Sunday. The work’s focus, using a series of Biblical texts (including from the psalms) chosen by the composer, not the traditional Requiem text, is on comfort and consolation, on those who have lost loved ones. As such it is fitting for the season of Remembrance. The sublime music will be sung by the excellent Holy Trinity Consort, an extension of the HT evensong choir, who have already sung two large-scale works this year - Bach’s St John Passion and Haydn’s Creation. They will be accompanied by a professional chamber ensemble - violin, viola, cello, flute, oboe, clarinet and piano, the latter played by David Goode, in an arrangement of the work by Iain Farrington. The soloists are (new HT soprano choral scholar) Daisy Livesey and baritone Alex Bower-Brown. Tickets £15 on the door, or at www.ticketsource.co.uk/sloanechurch
