“Thís March, Salisbury Chamber Chorus is returning to one of the most enduring favourites in the choral repertoire, Fauré’s Requiem. It’s perfect mixture of French Romanticism, the sacred musical tradition, and Fauré’s sense of classical finesse, not to mention his ability to craft a beautiful melodic line, have made it the popular piece it is.

Alongside the Fauré, the Chorus will be performing Stravinsky’s Symphony of Psalms, a short choral work that is dramatic and expressive, sharing a classical sensibility with the Fauré with its echoes of Bach and Mozart through a twentieth-century filter.”

Wednesday 20th December at 7.30pm

A service of Lessons and Carols, with Wilton Parish Choir and Schola Cantorum.      

Jacobs family brass and Organist, Dr Nigel Allison.

Doors open at 7pm.
