RUTTER’S MASS OF THE CHILDREN & BLACKFORD'S MIRROR OF PERFECTION With Benesonantes (Cobham Hall School Chamber Choir)

  • St George's Church, Gravesend Gravesend DA11 0DJ United Kingdom (map)

Concert starts at: 7:30 PM

Soprano: Eloise Irving

Baritone: Jack Holton

Inspired by his schoolboy experiences of singing with adult choirs, Rutter wrote this delightful Mass for the Children – packed with captivating melody, harmony and rhythm. Our second work, Mirror of Perfection, was inspired by Richard Blackford’s visit to Assisi. He was so moved to learn of St Francis’s simple life that he went on to write this powerful cantata of great lyrical beauty using the saint’s little-known poems.

Gravesham Choral are joined in this concert by Benesonantes (Cobham Hall School Chamber Choir), professional soloists and orchestra.

Benesonantes will also be performing:
RUTTER’S GOD BE IN MY HEAD and VICTOR JOHNSON’S HOPE IS THE BREATH OF MUSIC
