Wimbledon Choral – Rachmaninov “All-Night Vigil” – 7pm
WIMBLEDON CHORAL FOR THE BENEFIT OF “DONATE TO PROTECT CHILDREN IN THE UKRAINE”
This is a specially devised performance pairing the mesmerising settings of Rachmaninov’s All-Night Vigil with selected movements of Britten’s Cello Suites Nos 1 and 3. The cello soloist for this concert is the outstanding Joely Koos.
The present Wimbledon Choral is over one hundred years old, founded in the early stages of the First World War. Today we are a modern, dynamic group of singers, making sure we keep our reputation as one of the finest amateur choirs of the south east. Under Neil Ferris’ inspiring musical direction, we perform regularly with professional orchestras and soloists in major concert venues in and around London.
“Wimbledon Choral were magnificent…the intonation and timing exquisite.”

Upcoming Events
Duruflé Requiem – Twickenham Choral – 7pm
Join Twickenham Choral for a moving performance of Maurice Duruflé's Requiem in the beautiful surroundings of Holy Trinity Sloane Square. Composed in 1947, this deeply spiritual work blends Gregorian chant with rich harmonies to create an atmosphere of serenity and hope. Unlike more dramatic settings of the Requiem Mass, Duruflé's version offers a message of peace and consolation.
The concert also includes a performance of Rob Fenton's Ave Verum and music from cellist Oliver Simpson.
Twickenham Choral is conducted by Howard Ionascu. The choir will be joined by acclaimed soloists Cathy Bell mezzo soprano and Alexander Hopkins baritone, and accompanied by organist Andrew Lumsden.
Interstellar Plus – Roger Sayer – 7pm
Interstellar Organist Roger Sayer returns to Holy Trinity to play the original Hans Zimmer soundtrack, as well as music from other Sci-Fi films.
