Trumpets of the Apocalypse! Victory over evil! Angelic choirs!
We’re giving you the chance to sing Haydn’s last and greatest Harmoniemasse with us in the summer along with musical reflections by a whole host of other composers! Written as Napoleon’s canons were rolling into his town, Haydn demonstrated his resistance against the invaders with this extremely powerful testament to peace. Join conductor Alex and internationally renowned soloists as they bring their signature flare and enthusiasm to the choir!
Music scores and rehearsal tracks will be sent out approximately 6 weeks before the course weekend.
