Petros Singers – A Royal Occasion – 7:30pm
A Royal Occasion
Celebrating 400 years of music written for and performed at the great royal coronations, weddings and funerals
In the month of the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, Petros Singers will be performing a diverse programme of music for royal occasions: from magnificent compositions of imperial splendour to exquisite, contemplative miniatures, the works neatly mirror the history of both the country and the family they honour.
Petros Singers – a well-regarded chamber choir – is delighted to be joined by the three musicians who so memorably performed Handel’s Eternal Source of Light Divine at the wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex at Windsor Castle in 2018. Alongside this, they will be performing both much-loved and lesser-known works – please see below for full programme details.
Join them in the beautiful surroundings of Holy Trinity Sloane Square for this spectacular concert – complete with trumpet fanfares!
