SUMMARY:75th ANNIVERSARY SEASON - A BRITISH CHORAL CELEBRATION: Stanford: M
 ass in G & Rutter: Magnificat
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\nStanford: Mass in G  &  Rutter: Magnificat\nWith than
 ks to the Stanford Society for their generous support.\n\nWe will kick off
  our 75th Anniversary season with these 2 magnificent works that demonstra
 te the richness and variety of British choral music.\n\nIn 1892\, Stanfor
 d completed his Mass in G Major \, one of the most substantial Latin chor
 al works Britain produced in the Nineteenth Century. In 2014\, it received
  its world première recording\, featuring the Choir of Exeter College Oxf
 ord directed by George de Voil\, now Musical Director of Wokingham Choral 
 Society.\n\nWCS will give what is believed to be only the second ever conc
 ert performance with orchestra of this opulent Mass. From a new meticulo
 usly prepared edition by George de Voil and James Speakman\, the vivid co
 lours of this tuneful and characterful masterpiece will come to life\, sho
 wing such diverse influences as Schubert\, Dvorak\, Bruckner and Beethoven
 . \n\nJohn Rutter composed his extended setting of the Magnificat in 1990
 . With its colourful style and Latin American influences\, it is a joyful 
 piece in 7 movements which weaves the 15th-century English poem 'Of a Rose
 \, a lovely Rose' around the traditional liturgical text of the Magnificat
 . \n\nSoprano     Ruby Skilbeck \nAlto              Helena Coo
 ke \nTenor           Tom Castle\nBass             Peter Will
