Britain's What's On Event Guide
Northampton Philharmonic Choir present Spirits and Souls
Join us for two contrasting works.
Bob Chilcott’s “A Little Jazz Mass” is a unique and engaging piece that combines the traditional Latin Mass text with jazz rhythms and harmonies. It’s a highly original concert setting of the Latin Missa brevis, where the movements embrace a variety of jazz styles.
In contrast, in the second half, the Choir will perform Andrew Carter’s “Benedicite”. “Benedicite” is a choral composition that sets the hymn “Benedicite” from the Book of Common Prayer to music, along with additional free texts. For the performance the Choir will be joined by the choir of All Saints CEVA Primary School, Northampton.
Nene Sinfonia will be accompanying the choir.
Musical Director is Thomas Moore
Door open at 6pm for 6.30pm concert start
