Beethoven Symphony No.4
Haydn Harmoniemesse
The rich sonorities of a full wind section (Harmonie is German for wind band) make Haydn’s joyous setting of the mass one of his sunniest and high-spirited works.
Beethoven’s symphony is a delight; its compact scale can barely contain the unconventional twists and turns in the musical drama in a work of characteristically bristling energy and constant surprises.

A rich array of sacred vocal music spanning nearly three centuries, including a welcome return from one of the UK’s leading vocal groups on their 10th annual ‘pilgrimage’, a thrilling young European ensemble and the Britten–Pears Orchestra under the baton of inspiring young conductor Antonello Manacorda.
Familiar masterpieces and rarities, the intimate and the monumental, the reflective and joyously uplifting, this is a weekend to celebrate the human voice.
