A Banquet of Voices: heavenly music for Advent

29 November 2014

Crewkerne Methodist Church, South Street, Crewkerne

To mark the season of Advent Yeovil Chamber Choir, which is now in its 21st year of singing, will be joining with Axminster Chamber Choir to give two performances of music scored for 8 voices.

Judy Martin, the Musical Director of both choirs, has devised a programme of choral music all written with Advent in mind; the visitation to Mary, the witness of the prophets, and the promise of the Second Coming. The combined choir pieces (Guerrero, Victoria, Praetorius, Tallis) are all in eight parts, but also included are some pieces with smaller scoring so that the choirs can perform on their own, eg Benjamin Britten Hymn to the Virgin, Bob Chilcott Even Such is Time and John Tavener The Lamb.
 
Tickets are £10, to include refreshments in the interval on Saturday contact the Choir Treasurer by phone or email.
