Tamesis Chamber Choir & Trinity Concert Band: 'Classical Spectacular'
Earley-based Trinity Concert Band and
Reading-based Tamesis Chamber Choir will perform together for the
first time in what promises to be a memorable evening brimming with some of the greatest, most well-known classical music of all time.
The audience can expect to hear numbers such as Bernstein's fabulous Overture to Candide, Jupiter from Holst's spectacular
suite The Planets, the great British anthem Zadok the Priest, and Copland's rousing Fanfare for the Common Man.
No classical concert would be complete without a performance of Elgar's Nimrod, so we're delighted that Tamesis will be singing
the choral version Lux Aeterna, in addition to Parry's I Was Glad, made famous at the wedding of the Duke and
Duchess of Cambridge.
As the concert draws to a close the band and choir will come together once more for a stunning proms-style finale (yes, flags
will be provided!), featuring the classics Jerusalem and Fantasia on British Sea Songs.
The concert will feature an interval where guests can enjoy a selection of refreshments from the bar in the foyer, plus a chance to
win some excellent prizes in our raffle.
