New London Singers present Silence and Music, a captivating one-hour concert exploring the contrast between peaceful stillness, the power of sound, and how music gives voice to the silent world.
The concert weaves together poetry by Ursula Wood and choral works by a range of esteemed composers, including Ralph Vaughan Williams, Herbert Howells, Gerald Finzi, and James MacMillan. Each musical selection will be thoughtfully paired with a stanza from Wood's poem, creating a tapestry of reflection and emotion. Conducted by Jamie Powe
Royal College of Music graduates Emily Jennings (soprano), Emily Hoh (pianist) and Cassie Mathews (guitarist) are delighted to present ‘The Language of Folk’; an evocative recital of traditional folk songs and folk-inspired works by composers including Britten, MacMillan, Ireland and Llobet; weaving spellbinding tales with hauntingly beautiful melodies, this promises to be a true celebration of folk music. Running time will be approximately 45/50 minutes.
