Saturday 15th November - 7.30pm - Our Lady's Church, Formby
Works by Rutter, Kodaly & Lauridsen
The Requiem by John Rutter is a sublime piece - typical of him - full of lyrical melodies, yet tinged at times with acidic poignancy. The Missa Brevis by Kodaly proved a highlight when Birkenhead Choral Society performed it a couple of years ago, and Lauridsen's O Magnum Mysterium is just beautiful.
Having heard our friends in Birkenhead perform the Kodaly most effectively a year or two ago, it seems good enough to turn around the motto "what we do in Formby one year, they do in Birkenhead the next!"
Ticket details will be available in September.
