We are pleased to welcome the return of Ely Consort on Saturday December 7th to perform a wonderful Christmas programme of chamber choral music by Haydn, Gjeilo, Mozart, Adam, Rachmaninov and Rutter together with the Ad Hoc Sinfonia, soprano soloist Ellie Bowers-Jolley and Anne Reece, piano.
The programme of music for the festive season will include Haydn’s ‘St Nicholas Mass’, a thrilling new piece ‘Dreamweaver’ from the ever-popular contemporary composer Ola Gjeilo and Rachmaninov’s ‘Bogorodiste Dyevo’. Ellie will sing familiar solos, including Mozart’s ‘Laudate Dominum’ and Adolphe Adam’s ‘O holy night’.
Of course, a Christmas concert would not be complete without familiar carols and some of John Rutter’s well-loved music; we will sing his ‘Shepherd’s Pipe Carol’ and ‘Nativity Carol’, in their versions with orchestral accompaniment.
