Programme Note

“Revel in the gorgeous sounds, the spellbinding music, the programmes with something for everyone.” – John Rutter

The Gesualdo Six, directed by Owain Park, present works from their new Christmas CD recording in the stunning setting of St Peter’s Church, Eaton Square in London. The concert will be followed by a drinks reception, to which all are invited.

“Weavers of rich and plangent aural tapestries, The Gesualdo Six meld style and substance with beguiling sure-footedness.” – BBC Music Magazine
