The Choir of Royal Holloway and conductor Rupert Gough return to the Brandenburg Choral Festival of London with this late-night concert of music inspired by eventide. Movements of Rachmaninov’s Vespers will be interspersed with works by other Baltic composers, including Arvo Pärt and Eriks Ešenvalds: this rich and sonorous repertoire has become a specialty of this fine mixed-voice choir. The programme also includes Holst’s powerful Nunc dimittis, and Rheinberger’s beautiful Abendlied. Join us in the beautiful surroundings of a candlelit St Martin’s for this relaxing and sumptuous way to end the day.

This concert will last approximately one hour without an interval.

A reduced-price combined ticket is available for this concert and the later concert at St Martin's. Please contact the box office for more details.
