About the show
The passing of time has always been an inspiration for composers. This contemporary programme will show the full range of styles from the serious and emotionally charged through to the joyously folkloric. Our concert includes American composers Eric Whitacre (Sleep) and Morton Lauridsen’s sumptuous Nocturnes (which include Sure on this shining night); the Canadian Sarah Quartel; the British composers Jonathan Dove’s The Passing of the Year and David Bednall’s Three Songs of Love, Becky McGlade’s To a Skylark and Cecilia McDowall’s A Fancy of Folksongs.
Featuring - Bristol Bach Choir

Its auditioned and highly skilled members are equipped to perform both the larger choral works and more intimate chamber choir repertoire with equal success. Our conductor is Composer, Organist and Pianist Dr David Bednall.
