Poster for BCS Concert on November 19th 2011

We open our new season with a feast of Fauré - there is the major work of the genuinely beautiful Requiem, full of subtlety and eloquence; then the slighter yet equally beautiful sacred work of the Cantique de Jean Racine as well as the PéIleas et Mélisande suite with its exquisite orchestral colours.

Completing the programme is the Brahms' short powerful work for chorus and orchestra - Song of Destiny - with its deeply human and at times radiant message which acts as an interesting counterpart to the more introspective French works.

We are delighted to welcome back two soloists who performed wonderfully with us earlier in the year soprano Bethany Seymour and baritone David Kimberg Bedford Sinfonia, under the baton of our Musical Director Ian Smith complete the impressive line-up.
