Concert Awake my Soul Sheringham and Cromer Choral Society
Sheringham and Cromer Choral Society join forces with Broadland Youth choir to perform John Rutter’s Mass of the Children alongside the world premiere of Seasons which was especially commissioned from Thomas Hewitt Jones and is dedicated to the choral society and to the memory of Barbara Proctor. Barbara, a long-standing member of the choir, gifted funds in her will to the Society. This concert is given in her memory.
John Rutter's Mass of the Children was first performed on 13 February 2003 in Carnegie Hall, New York, conducted by the composer. As well as including traditional Latin texts the Mass also includes verse by Thomas Ken (1637- 1711), William Blake (1757 – 1827) and others.
