Corona Mariae
For the second ‘Joy & Devotion’ Festival concert, The Choir of King’s College London performs a set of hymns by the contemporary Polish composer, Slawomir Czarnecki (b. 1949). Czarnecki is one of the most prolific contemporary choral composers, having won numerous international competitions for his work. At this concert, audiences can enjoy his Hymn in Honour of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Queen of Poland, which epitomises the special position the Virgin Mary occupies in Polish culture.
