Tallis and Rachmaninov
Saturday 18 June 2022, 8.00pm
Our Lady of Lourdes, KT7 0LP
The Ripieno Choir and English Arts Chorale join forces to perform two tours de force of the choral repertoire, Tallis’s Spem in alium and Rachmaninov’s All-Night Vigil, in an evening of awe and reflection.
THE CHOIR
We are a chamber choir of about thirty-five experienced singers, based near Esher.
Directed by Huw Morgan, we sing sacred and secular music, mostly from the Renaissance and Baroque eras, and have a penchant for rarely performed and rediscovered music.
The Vine of Grace
We had hoped to record this programme and publish it online, but the ongoing restrictions on singing indoors meant this wasn’t possible.
Instead, one damp Sunday afternoon in June, we gave an al fresco performance to anyone within earshot.
