Britain's What's On Event Guide
Haunting Harmonies
Haunting Harmonies - a unique choral concert
Polymnia, Musical Director Jessica Norton
Milton Keynes Youth Choir, Musical Director David Anstice-Pimm
Craig Greene, piano
Haunting Harmonies draws together an eclectic collection of works exploring the mysterious, the magical, and the spectral. From Renaissance laments to Shakespearean incantations, from eerie folk tales to contemporary pop ballads, the programme moves through music that is darkly dramatic, eerily beautiful, and playfully wicked. There is surely something for everyone here.
