In a welcome return for The Sixteen following sell-out concerts at Snape, this a cappella programme celebrates the glorious English sacred music of the pre- and post-Reformation by John Sheppard, Thomas Tallis and William Byrd.
At the centre is John Sheppard’s Media vita, a staggering achievement not only in its sheer size but also in its almost overwhelming expressive outpouring.

Easter Weekend
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.
