An Easter Journey
Inspirational choral music to accompany the greatest story ever told
Our Lady and St Michael’s Church, Pen y Pound, Abergavenny, NP7 5UD.
Saturday April 2nd at 7:30pm
On Saturday April 2nd at 7.30pm, Unicorn Singers will again be making music at Our Lady and St Michael’s Church, Pen y Pound, Abergavenny, NP7 5UD.
Join us for an emotional rollercoaster as we chart the tumultuous events of Passiontide in sublime sound.
Here is music of great depth and emotion, spanning the rich polyphony of Renaissance composers Byrd, Gibbons and Sheppard to the epic modern day soundscapes of John Tavener and Eric Whitacre.
Our rich tapestry of pieces unravels both the agony and ecstasy of the Holy Week drama from the poignant moments of the Last Supper and Crucifixion to the joy and mystery of Easter Morning itself.
There is much contrast for the listener throughout, with other choral gems from leading composers Purcell, Bruckner and Poulenc adding a further dimension to the programme.
Don't miss this mesmerising sonic delight!
