| Description: |
The next programme from Brighton Consort, directed by James Dixon, features both sacred and secular music in celebration of food and wine. The concert will include several choral gems from the 16th century by William Byrd, Thomas Tallis, Tomas Luis de Victoria, Orlando Lassus and others. The choir’s repertoire also includes some 20th century works, and the programme will conclude with Gerald Finzi’s “Lo, the full, final sacrifice”. Written in 1946, this work for choir and organ is one of the most notable English anthems of the 20th century. |
