My spirit sang all day !

Held within the exquisite venue of St Johns, Sharow, this concert offers a celebration of the wonderful variety and richness of Western choral music.Alongside a heady mix of Romantic-era poetry and love songs, the programme includes the spiritually profound music of Palestrina, marking 500 years since his birth, and a contemporary masterpiece of Sir James MacMillan, born in 1959.So there is something here for everyone to enjoy, and something to maybe touch the soul where other songs dont reach.St Peters Singers are passionate about the music we sing and want to share it with as many people as possible. We do all we can to make anyone who comes to our concerts feel welcome and at ease. So if youve not tried this music out before, why not come along and bring a friend? St John's is an accessible venue with good facilities. Everyone is welcome.ProgrammePalestrina Missa Aeterna Christi Munera (Gloria, Sanctus, Benedictus, Agnus Dei) MacMillan Miserere Taverner Dum transisset sabbatum Wood This joyful EastertideInterval - during which refreshments will be servedPearsall Lay a garland Stanford The Blue Bird Vaughan Williams The Turtle Dove Vaughan Williams Linden Lea Whitacre Lux Aurumque Elgar My love dwelt in a Northern Land Finzi My spirit sang all day Sullivan The long day closes Parry My soul, there is a country
