  1. Spem in alium - Thomas Tallis
  2. Fantasia on a theme by Thomas Tallis - Ralph Vaughan Williams
  3. Symphony No 7 in E - Anton Bruckner

Hear 8 choirs sing simultaneously in Thomas Tallis's 'Spem in alium' - the English composer’s greatest achievement and one of the finest pieces of choral music ever written. The choirs of King's College London and St Luke’s Church Kew join Fulham Symphony Orchestra in a concert including Ralph Vaughan Williams's much-loved 'Fantasia on a theme by Thomas Tallis' and Anton Bruckner's Symphony No 7.

Vaughan Williams took another theme by Tallis and interwove it with folksong to create his much-loved Fantasia – a work for string orchestra that is by turns mysterious and passionate.

Bruckner’s Symphony No 7 was his first great popular success, met by a 15-minute standing ovation at its premiere. Wagner’s death prompted him to add an elegiac coda to the second movement, “In memory of the immortal and dearly beloved Master who has departed this life”.
