SUMMARY:A Choral Fancy
DESCRIPTION:A varied and entertaining selection of musical delights for a Summer Evening \n\n\n\nSt Cuthbert’s Church\, Pateley Bridge \n\n\n\nnr Harrogate HG3 5LQ \n\n\n\nSaturday 9 July\, 7.30pm \n\n\n\nTickets £10 available at the door or here \n\n\n\nBar open at 7.00pm \n\n\n\nApproximate duration 90 minutes (including an interval) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProgramme \n\n\n\nI was glad Hubert ParryNever weather beaten sailHubert ParryI know my soul hath powerHubert ParryThere is an old beliefHubert ParryOrgan solo: Psalm Prelude Set 2\, No 3 Herbert HowellsZadok the Priest  Georg Friedrich HandelMy heart is inditingGeorg Friedrich HandelAbendliedJosef RheinbergerLux aeternaJames MacMillan Interval Vinea mea electaFrancois PoulencTimor et tremorFrancois PoulencOrgan Solo: RhosymedreRalph Vaughan WilliamsThe HillsJohn IrelandLinden LeaRalph Vaughan WilliamsThe Turtle DoveRalph Vaughan WilliamsThe Blue BirdCharles Villiers StanfordWeaver BirdMatthew OglesbyOrgan solo: Tu es PetrusJeanne DemessieuxTu es PetrusPalestrinaTu es PetrusPhilip Moore\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAnthony Gray organ \n\n\n\nSt Peter’s Singers \n\n\n\nAlexander Woodrow director \n\n\n\nThis programme incorporates a delightful mix of styles and sounds. There’s a nod to the Queen’s Jubilee with two of Handel’s Coronation Anthems and Parry’s I was glad\, together with three of his beautiful Songs of Farewell. Rheinberger’s Abendlied (Evening Hymn) brings a more reflective mood\, while James Macmillan’s Lux aeterna allows us to briefly revisit our Songs of Solace recital last October and remember those lost in the pandemic. \n\n\n\nAfter an interval\, two of Poulenc’s short Motets take us briefly to the very different sound world of twentieth century French spiritual music\, before we switch to a more relaxed set of secular part songs\, including the well-known Linden Lea by Vaughan Williams and Stanford’s gorgeous The Blue Bird. This group finishes with Weaver Bird\, a short composition by our in-house duo poet Hannah Stone and composer Matthew Oglesby. \n\n\n\nWe finish\, fittingly for a choir with our name\, with two settings of the text Tu es Petrus (‘You are Peter’)\, one by the 16th century master Palestrina\, and the other composed for our 40th anniversary in 2017 by Philip Moore\, formerly Organist of York Minster.  \n\n\n\nAnthony Gray plays the organ and Alex Woodrow directs. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHG3 5LQ

SUMMARY:Dolorosa
DESCRIPTION:Music for Good Friday \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLeeds Minster \n\n\n\nGood Friday\, 15 April\, 7.00pm \n\n\n\nA programme of beautiful and deeply expressive Italian music composed for the time when the Christian church commemorates the death of Christ. \n\n\n\nDon’t miss this chance to hear Allegri’s famous Miserere live! \n\n\n\nTickets £15\, Concessions £12\, (Free FTE / Under-18)  \n\n\n\nApproximate duration 75 minutes \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProgramme \n\n\n\nCrucifixus est pro nobis Antonio LottiMiserere meiFrancesco ScarlattiMiserere mei   Gregorio AllegriStabat Mater dolorosa   Domenico Scarlatti \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSally Ladds cello \n\n\n\nGraham Thorpe organ \n\n\n\nSt Peter’s Singers \n\n\n\nAlexander Woodrow director \n\n\n\nOur ‘Music for Good Friday’ series resumes after the pandemic with a programme of Italian music including Allegri’s famous Miserere. \n\n\n\nThe Miserere is a setting of Psalm 51 – ‘Have mercy upon me O God after thy great goodness’. Although it properly belongs to the previous day\, its penitential nature makes it an entirely suitable response to the crucifixion of Christ. So the programme includes both the plainchant setting by Allegri and Francesco Scarlatti’s more elaborate version from the Baroque age.  \n\n\n\nThe medieval poem Stabat Mater Dolorosa (‘The grieving mother stood weeping while her son hung on the cross’) has been set to music countless times. This setting\, by Domenico Scarlatti\, exploits all the richness of expression afforded by ten vocal parts and is one of the classics of the Baroque period. \n\n\n\nThe programme is completed by Antonio Lotti’s famous 8-part setting of the text Crucifixus est prop nobis (‘He was crucified for us’). \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLeeds Minster – access\n\n\n\nPublic parking is available on the street and in the car park opposite the Palace Hotel at the eastern end of Leeds Minster. There is also a large NCP car park next to Leeds Markets on the other side of the railway\, and the John Lewis carpark slightly further away. \n\n\n\n\n\nItalian Renaissance and Baroque music for Good Friday

SUMMARY:Hallelujah ! Messiah returns
DESCRIPTION:Hallelujah – Messiah returns !\n\n\n\nHandel’s Messiah returns to Leeds after an unwelcome and enforced absence.\n\n\n\nLeeds Minster\n\n\n\nSaturday 27 November 2021 7.30pm\n\n\n\nCome and hear this glorious\, life-affirming music! \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nTickets £15\, £12 concessions\, Free FTE / Under-18s all to include a glass of wine or juice and a free programme \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHandel’s Messiah has been a favourite of Yorkshire audiences and choirs for many years\, and no wonder. The music and texts exude a warm and sympathetic glow and somehow draw our attention above all else to the humanity of its subject. Feel-good music\, that has been sorely missed. \n\n\n\nAlex Woodrow directs St Peter’s Singers and a stellar lineup of (mostly) young soloists. Tom Moore accompanies on the Minster’s fabulous Harrison organ. \n\n\n\nSt Peter’s Singers are proud to present the first major performance of the work in Leeds since the pandemic started. What better way is there to start your preparations for Christmas ? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLeeds Minster – access and Covid security\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nLeeds Minster is a large and seemingly well-ventilated building\, with sufficient room for you to space out as you wish.
