Classical Music

Choral at Cadogan, Cadogan Hall

By Claudia Pritchard on 3/1/2019

The best choirs in Britain, and one from New Zealand, sing music that is powerful, inspiring and humorous too

The outstanding British choir gives two concerts. The first (2 Oct) features 16th-century music of ethereal charm and astonishing complexity, including Taverner's six-voice Magnificat and ornate pieces by John Sheppard. In the second (15 May) the composers are the 20th-century mystic John Tavener and rousing Rachmaninov.
