Paying it Forward: Celebrating the Legacy of C V Stanford
Pangbourne Choral Societies Spring Concert
This concert includes a variety of pieces in celebration of the work and influence of Charles Villiers Stanford who died on 29th March 1924. The works chosen represent composers from the 19th and 20th centuries who influenced Stanford e.g. Brahms & Sullivan plus a number of the composers that he influenced directly or indirectly.
