Time for something completely different?
Two hours of dream-time music to chill out to, to relax you and to take you to a calmer place in your mind.
The zesty Gloria by Poulenc, accompanied by Karen Kingsley, is surely one of the best-loved twentieth century choral works. It is contrasted with local composer Ian Schofield’s Stream of Life, freeing stress with the words of the Indian guru Rabindranath Tagore.
The programme also contains William Byrd’s Ne Irascaris, Gitanjali Chants by Craig Hilla Johnson and John Cage’s 4/2, a Zen-inspired work of inner peace.
The programme of restful delights comes from the award-winning Renaissance Choir, regarded by many as the amateur choir’s version of The Sixteen. The concert features the gorgeous cathedral-like acoustic of Southsea’s Church of the Holy Spirit.
Tickets £15. Further info from https://renaissancechoir.org.uk or 01243 379724.
Details: 7.30pm, Saturday 13 July, Church of the Holy Spirit, Fawcett Road PO4 0DY.
