Vaughan Williams Mass in G minor
Vaughan Williams Songs of Travel
Interval
Duruflé Requiem
———————————————————————————————————-
The Temple Church Choir perform two of the greatest sacred choral pieces from the last century. Vaughan Williams’s Mass for double choir evokes the sounds of renaissance music whilst combining with the beautiful harmonic imprint that marks his territory. Duruflé’s timeless Requiem, based on Gregorian plainchant, is the perfect piece for the acoustics and organ of the Temple Church.
There will be a short interval.
