City of Bath Bach Choir Abbey Concert

The City of Bath Bach Choir performs in the inspirational setting of Bath Abbey, with its soaring fan-vaulting and warm, resonant acoustic.

Acclaimed for its imaginative programming, the choir will perform music by two living composers: Elis Pehkonen's highly moving and evocative Russian Requiem and Ed Hughes's eloquent Song for St Cecilia, specially commissioned by the City of Bath Bach Choir.

The climax of the concert will be a performance of Vivaldi's vibrant and ever-popular Gloria with soloists Lesley Jane Rogers and Jeanette Ager and the Wessex Sinfonia, conducted by the choir's Musical Director Nigel Perrin.

Tickets can be obtained from City of Bath Bach Choir (07967 444079) up to September 27, then from Bath Festivals Box Office (01225 463362) from September 28.

Tickets: £25, £20, £17.50, £12, £10
