The Esterhazy Singers – Haydn’s Nelson Mass – 7:30pm
The Esterhazy Singers, under new Music Director, David Halstead, will be performing the glorious Nelson Mass - named Missa in Angustiis (Mass for troubled times) by the composer - joined by their orchestra in their first concert since 2020. Alongside Haydn’s ‘greatest’ work, they will present other works on the theme of turmoil: Britten’s Rejoice in the Lamb sets verses written by psychiatric patient Christopher Smart, for this performance with Imogen Holst’s orchestration; alongside Brahms’ Geistliches Lied (Spiritual Song); and Mozart’s mournful Adagio and Fugue in C minor (K. 546).
Doors open at 7pm for a 7.30pm start and there will be one interval.
