Allegri Singers Spring Concert
Allegri perform Palestrina's glorious Pope Marcellus Mass and anthems from the 16th to the 21st Centuries. A wonderfully opulent work for six-part choir, the Mass was written in Rome in 1562, and has often been sung during Papal inauguration services. Between the mass sections Allegri perform a variety of works, with celebratory anthems by Gibbons and Sweelinck, and modern items by David Collins and Lauridsen. They end their programme with three anthems from the Romantic period by Mendels
