YORKSHIRE BACH CHOIR

Join us for a captivating concert woven with themes of nature, gardens and transcendent landscapes. At its heart, is a unique arrangement of Vaughan Williams' soaring, timeless The Lark Ascending, reimagined for choir and solo violin. Our programme also includes Moeran’s vibrant Songs of Springtime and Pearsall's haunting Lay a Garland. Two of Britten’s choral masterpieces, Hymn to St. Cecilia, an imaginative setting of W.H. Auden’s poetic tapestry; and Rejoice in the Lamb, which praises a unique natural world through Christopher Smart’s fantastical poetry are included. The programme also interweaves Finzi’s rich evocation of pastoral sacrifice Lo, the Full Final Sacrifice and the heavenly expanse of Harris’s Faire is the Heaven.
