English Chamber Choir – The Crucifixion – 7.45pm
The splendour and drama of late Victorian music and architecture combine in The English Chamber Choir’s engaging performance of Stainer’s portrayal of The Passion, preceded by a short choral fanfare in Rufus Frowde’s reworking of Bach’s Prelude in C Minor BWV 847.
Fresh on the heels of recent performances at The Royal Albert Hall, Cadogan Hall and Buckingham Palace, ECC is joined by acclaimed vocal soloists Graham Neal (tenor) and John Holland-Avery (bass). The four-manual organ, one of London’s finest, is played by ECC’s Assistant Accompanist, Andreana Chan, an organist at the beginning of a highly promising career. Her recording credits include Signum Classics as well as a forthcoming recording for Sony. The concert will run without interval. Tickets are available from Eventbrite.

A Taste of Heaven – 6pm
The Holy Trinity Consort presents a French-Swiss celebration - written in secret and hidden in a drawer for forty years, Frank Martin's Mass for Double Choir is now treasured as one of the twentieth century's great choral discoveries. After the interval, Fauré's sublime Requiem: music of consolation, from the radiant Pie Jesu to the whispered farewell of In Paradisum. We are delighted to welcome Läderach as our partner for the evening, and premium-ticket holders will enjoy an exclusive tasting of their exquisite Swiss chocolate. Candlelight, chocolate and glorious music - an evening to savour at Holy Trinity.
