Saturday 22nd October 2016 7.30pm Guests of Huddersfield Voices

Orion Chamber Choir is pleased to join Huddersfield Voices for their autumn concert at Gledholt Methodist Church.

Our contribution to the programme will include

Gerald Finzi “Seven Poems of Robert Bridges” – ‘a wide-ranging quintessentially English setting of lyrical poetry by Robert Bridges, resulting in seven of the finest unaccompanied part songs of the period.’

Morten Lauridsen “Nocturnes” – ‘a triptych of settings of Rilke, Pablo Neruda and James Agee … all three brimful of the exquisite beauty that is Lauridsen’s special possession’ (Manchester Evening News)

Here’s a reminder of our performance of one of the Noctures from September 2015
