Pergolesi: Stabat Mater
Martin: Mass for Double Choir


​For our Lenten concert, we present two contrasting masterpieces. Swiss composer Frank Martin’s epic Mass for Double Choir is one of the pinnacles of the choral repertoire: soulful, energetic, rhythmic and achingly powerful by turns. Written in the 1920s, it was not released for publication and performance until some forty years later. Pergolesi’s famous Stabat Mater, a moving and profoundly human picture of a grieving mother composed in the final weeks of Pergolesi’s life, is performed in its version for full choir, accompanied by strings and organ.

Over Hill, Over Dale
​

For our final concerts of the season, we present an eclectic mix of secular music. Settings of Shakespeare by Vaughan Williams, Mäntejärvi and Tavener offer a variety of moods and themes with unusual and imaginative choral writing. The remarkable Romancero Gitano by CastelnuovoTedesco, a collection of Spanish folksongs for choir and guitar, will be performed alongside a newly commissioned work by Tim Watts, perhaps best known for his searingly powerful opera Kepler’s Trial. This will be our second world première of the season.
