Corvus Consort
Louise Thomson	Harp

Women's voices, both singers and composers, take centre stage as Corvus Consort and harpist Louise Thomson bring a beautifully curated programme spanning centuries of choral and harp music. Their acclaimed 2024 album Welcome Joy on Chandos was selected as BBC Radio 3's Essential Classics Album of the Week, named BBC Music Magazine's Recording of the Month, and featured among their 13 best classical albums of 2024.

The programme ranges from Imogen Holst and Judith Weir to Elizabeth Poston and Benjamin Britten's A Ceremony of Carols, with harp interludes woven throughout.

'Dazzling … under its founder-director Freddie Crowley, Corvus Consort is always full of fresh thinking.' BBC Music Magazine
