Belshazzar’s Feast is a powerful work: both grand in scale and impact; to do it justice it needs a large choir, a sizeable orchestra, with a significant brass section and a magnificent array of percussion as well as an organ to present this masterpiece, which brings to life the biblical story of Belshazzar. 

The choir will also perform Finzi’s For St Cecilia. This is fitting as St Cecilia’s day is celebrated each year, on 22nd November. St. Cecilia is the patron saint of music and musicians, and her feast day has inspired many musical works, including pieces by Purcell, Handel, and Benjamin Britten. This beautiful cantata celebrates the power of music and its divine inspiration.

The concert will conclude with Frank Bridge’s The Sea; a richly evocative orchestral suite that captures the changing moods and vast beauty of the ocean in four vivid movements.
