SUMMARY:Remembrance-tide
DESCRIPTION:As the season of remembrance approaches\, Glasgow Chamber Choir presents an afternoon of thoughtful and expressive choral music\, exploring themes of reflection\, memory\, and peace. \nUnder the direction of Michael Bawtree\, the programme features three contrasting responses to loss and remembrance. Herbert Howells’ Take him\, earth\, for cherishing\, written in memory of President John F. Kennedy\, is one of the most deeply felt and radiant works of the twentieth-century choral repertoire. Jaakko Mäntyjärvi’s Canticum Calamitatis Marinorum (“Song of the Sea Disaster”) offers a strikingly modern soundscape of compassion and humanity\, composed in response to the sinking of the MS Estonia. And in Walford Davies’ A Short Requiem\, we hear a more intimate and traditional voice – music that finds serenity in the midst of remembrance. \nJoin us for an hour of beautiful and contemplative choral music – a chance to pause and listen\, as voices and harmonies resonate in this season of reflection. \nSunday 9 November at 3.30pmSt Margaret’s Episcopal Church\, Kilmarnock Road\, Glasgow G43 2DS\nFree entry – with retiring collection

SUMMARY:In the beginning
DESCRIPTION:Join Glasgow Chamber Choir for an evening of vibrant and varied music inspired by the soundscape of the Americas. At the centre of the programme is Aaron Copland’s In the Beginning – a dramatic and rarely-heard setting of the Creation story\, blending rich choral writing with a solo mezzo-soprano voice and Copland’s unmistakable musical colour. \nAlongside this\, the concert takes listeners on a musical journey across the continents. From Mexico’s colonial past\, Juan de Padilla’s Missa Ego flos campi offers the intricate beauty and serenity of Renaissance polyphony\, while Heitor Villa-Lobos brings a burst of rhythmic energy and Brazilian warmth. Eric Whitacre’s luminous harmonies capture the spirit of contemporary American choral writing\, and Herbert Howells’ Take him\, earth\, for cherishing – composed in memory of President John F. Kennedy – adds a touch of heartfelt reflection from across the Atlantic. \nCome and hear a concert that celebrates the diversity and creativity of choral music across the Americas – from Renaissance Mexico to modern-day Manhattan – all in the resonant surroundings of St Bride’s Episcopal Church. \nDirector:Michael Bawtree\nSaturday 22 November at 7.30pmSt Bride’s Episcopal Church\, 69 Hyndland Road\, Glasgow G12 9UXTickets: £15 Adults | £5 Students available on the door or via ticketlight
