Programme Note

The second of this evening's concerts in the Brandenburg Choral Festival of London 2017 Spring Series features the Choir of St Catharine's College Cambridge. Allegri's haunting Miserere is at the heart of this programme of contemplative a cappella choral music for the time of Lent, and will feature BBC Chorister of the Year 2016 Agatha Pethers in the stratospheric solo. The programme also includes other early choral masterpieces by Thomas Tallis and Robert Parsons, as well as contemporary works by Judith Bingham, Sally Beamish and Joanna Marsh. Join us for this beautiful programme in the atmospheric surroundings of a candlelit St Martin's.

A combined ticket offer is available for this concert and the earlier concert at St Martin's. Please contact the box office for more details.

This concert will last approximately one hour without an interval.
