Thank you to all those who supported us at our our spring concert on Saturday 13 April.  Under our Music Director George Vass, we had an amazing evening performing a programme of sacred and secular music in the Chapel of St George’s School, Harpenden. 

Joined by a trio of outstanding young soloists, Danni O’Neill (soprano), Angharad Rowlands (mezzo-soprano), Thomas Butler (baritone) and accompanied by Orchestra Nova, the concert's headline piece was Vivaldi's magnificent Gloria in D Major.  The programme also featured Gerald Finzi’s deeply moving cantata ‘In terra pax’. 

Reflecting its commitment to performing works by living composers, the Choir also performed James Francis Brown’s three exultant and uplifting psalm settings, ‘The Heavens and the Heart’, commissioned by St Albans Choral Society, and a recent work by Cecilia McDowall, the Choir’s composer-in-association. 

Our next concert is on Saturday 22 June 2o24 - please see our Concerts page for details.
