Love and Marriage

Saturday, 31 March 2012, 8pm, Chapter House of York Minster

From youth's first flush of love to a lifetime together, love is explored in all its variety in this programme of ravishing 20th and 21st century music. Including Paul Mealor's anthem for the royal wedding, we also touch on folksong and Gergorian chant. Swingle and Buchenburg provide a delightful light contrast.

Duruflé: Ubi caritas et amor

The Modern Man I Sing

Saturday, 7 July 2012, 8pm, Unitarian Chapel, St Saviourgate

A contemporary programme of the sacred and secular, as part of the Late Music Festival, with local connections in Philip Moore and Will Todd. Richard Rodney Bennett's Missa Brevis is his only piece of liturgical music and demonstrates a wide variety of styles in a brief span. Betty Roe was recently awarded an MBE for her services to music, and her witty arrangements contrast with the darker-toned Lorca Suite of the Finnish master, Rautavaara.

Rodney Bennett: Missa Brevis
McDowall: Deus, portus pacis
Moore: Evening Prayers
Todd: Christus est Stella
Rizza: Ave Generosa
Briggs: I will lift up mine eyes
Chilcott: The Modern Man I Sing
Rautavaara: Lorca Suite
Roe: Three English Folksongs
