Britain's What's On Event Guide
Prestbury Choral Society Concert
Come and listen to one of the most popular Baroque choral works, Vivaldi’s Gloria, which Prestbury Choral Society will perform alongside Buxtehude’s The Little Newborn Jesus Child (Das Neugeborne Kindelein), as well as seasonal music, readings, and carols for audience and choir.
The Gloria is full of energetic rhythms and triumphant harmonies to catch the listener’s attention. From the jubilant opening chorus to the serene “Domine Deus” soprano solo and the majestic double fugue of “Cum Sancto Spiritu,” Vivaldi’s Gloria remains a vivid testament to his genius, showing technical brilliance and emotional and spiritual depth which continue to resonate with audiences today.
The Little Newborn Jesus Child (Das Neugeborne Kindelein) is a charming, short, Christmas chorale by the 17th century german composer, Dieterich Buxtehude. It features a lilting dance-like rhythm and clear harmonies that reflect the warmth and innocence of the nativity story.
