Programme Note
Blending poetry, rhythm and melody in unexpected ways in this vibrant, uplifting summer choral concert.
Poetry in motion brings together choral works that blend poetry, rhythm and melody in unexpected ways. From Gjeilo’s The Rose which shimmers with luminous harmonies to Shearing’s setting of Shakespeare’s words in a joyful jazz-infused style to the electrifying Misatango, where the traditional Latin Mass meets the passion and pulse of Argentine tango. A vibrant, uplifting evening not to be missed!
