In Excelsis Deo

Our next concert will be in Ely Cathedral on Saturday 21st October 2024 at 7:30 pm when we will perform Vivaldi’s Gloria and the Mass in D by Dvořák together with an organ solo and Etheldreda from ‘Fenland Images’ by Parnell.

Gloriously spiritual works begin and end this concert.  Vivaldi’s Gloria ranks among the most popular choral pieces, full of both vivacious and intimate baroque sonorities.  The Mass in D by Dvořák is more lyrical and prayerful than dramatic, reflecting Dvořák’s love of nature and evoking the countryside surrounding the chapel for which the work was written.  An organ solo and Etheldreda from ‘Fenland Images’ by the conductor Andrew Parnell, complete the programme.  Local soloists join forces with Ely’s largest choir making this a delightful autumn concert.

With Rebecca Duckworth soprano, Lynette Alcantara mezzo-soprano, Sam Madden tenor, Jonathan Midgley bass, Glen Dempsey organ and Ely Choral Society.

Conducted by Andrew Parnell

Tickets are on sale at £25, £20, £10 and £5 for under 18s from the cathedral box office or at www.elycathedral.org/events
