“…as near extraterrestrial as you can get sitting in a concert hall…” Fiona Maddocks, The Observer

Sandwiched between Victoria's two grandest double-choir compositions, the Tallis Scholars programme‎ features Tallis' 7-voice Christmas Missa Puer natus. Its three surviving movements are separated by masterpieces of this seasonal repertoire, the two by Sheppard involving the specialist high treble voice. The modern pieces by Pärt, Britten and Tavener have long been recognised as classics.

This concert will finish at approximately 9.30pm.
