The Rock Festival Choir Concert

Rock Festival Choir Concert, Director Peter Brown, Organist Peter Hignett

The Rock Festival Choir will perform a concert at St Paul’s Church, Alnwick on Sunday 1st April at 7.30pm. The repertoire includes music from last April’s royal wedding - Paul Mealor’s Ubi Caritas, John Rutter’s This is the Day and I was Glad by Charles Hubert Hastings Parry, whose well known anthem was also performed during the Queen’s coronation 60 years ago, evoking both the royal wedding and celebrating the Diamond Jubilee.

The Choir will also perform Bob Chilcott’s Requiem, which was first performed in March 2010 and which has been internationally recognised as a major new choral work. Peter Brown, Director of the Rock Festival Choir, believes this will be the first performance of this beautiful, reflective and memorable work in the North East of England.


Tickets available on the door, £7.50 (£6.50 Concessions)
