Hidden: Music of Mystery and Meditation
Pakefield Singers make a return visit to St Peter Mancroft on Saturday 19 July. The choir will be performing sublime pieces inspired by and to complement the art installation, ‘Hidden’ by renowned ecclesiastical sculptor Peter Walker, which will be suspended in the church above the choir.
The programme includes pieces by Tavener, O Magnum Mysterium by Lauridsen, described by the composer as ‘a quiet song of profound inner joy’. Gjeilo’s O Lux Beata, with oboe accompaniment; the Benedictus from The Armed Man alongside music by Mozart, Bach, Mendelssohn, Fauré and others.
There will be solo pieces as well as accompaniments by Tim Patient, on piano and organ and Oboist Julian Kirk, will play the haunting Gabriel’s Oboe from the film The Mission.
A fitting climax to the concert will be the glorious Antiphon from Vaughan Williams’ Five Mystical Songs: Let all the world in ev’ry corner sing.
