Under 21s: free St Martin's Church, Church Street Epsom KT17 4PX EPSOM CHAMBER CHOIR PRESENTS FAURÉ REQUIEM A wonderful work with a wonderful choir in a wonderful venue! Epsom Chamber Choir’s Autumn concert on 15 th November explores the rich heritage of French liturgical music, with the iconic Fauré Requiem as its pièce de résistance. Audiences will be very familiar with this much-loved work but perhaps less so with this intimate orchestration for organ, strings and harp. This is complemented by shorter, a cappella works by composers Messiaen, Poulenc, Villette, Duruflé and both Nadia and Lili Boulanger (with the sneaky addition of Whitacre’s Sainte Chapelle!) Conductor Jack Apperley says: “We have managed to contrive a programme of French music sung entirely in Latin! In the 19 th and 20 th centuries the French produced a wealth of beautiful sacred music. While the Fauré Requiem is a choral classic, the other less familiar works bring a particular French character with their phrasing of the Latin texts and their spicy harmonies.” St Martin’s Church, with its wonderful acoustics, is the perfect setting for this inspiring programme and the highly-regarded Epsom Chamber Choir can be counted on to deliver a memorable performance under Jack Apperley’s direction.
