Upcoming Events
Barts’s Choir – Monteverdi’s Vespers (1610) – 7:30pm
Join us for two performances of Monteverdi’s Vespers (1610), one of the great masterpieces of sacred music, with Trafalgar Sinfonia conducted by Ivor Setterfield.
Published over four centuries ago, the Vespers stands at the threshold between the Renaissance and the Baroque, combining ancient plainchant with bold new operatic expression. Its radiant choruses, intimate solo motets and dazzling instrumental writing make it a thrilling experience live, and the beautiful Arts and Crafts setting of Holy Trinity Sloane Square makes it an evening of colour, drama and devotion.

Medici Choir – Brahms’ Ein Deutsches Requiem – 7pm
Brahms' magnificent German Requiem, sometimes dark yet ultimately consoling, is a choir and audience favourite. Lauridsen's tranquil and lyrical Lux Aeterna will appeal to lovers of Faure's Requiem.
