Description
Soloists: Zoe Brookshaw, William Purefoy, Mark Wilde, Christian Andreas
Violins: Kelly McCusker and Miranda Walton
Bach’s Magnificat in D of 1733 (a reworked version of the original E-flat major composition) centres on the response of Mary, mother of Jesus, to Gabriel’s news. This sequence of beautiful movements is one of the core pieces of Bach Choir repertoire. On this occasion we are pairing it with the less well-known Ascension Oratorio ‘Lobet Gott in seinen Reichen’ (BWV 11), with equally rich scoring reminiscent of the great Christmas Oratorio – all complemented by an orchestral treat, the beautiful Double Violin Concerto!
We can accept payment by card at the door, as well as online and from Derby Live.
