James Burton is the guest conductor for this latest concert by Birmingham’s long-established early music & choral ensemble Ex Cathedra. 

Alongside a composition of his own - in which St Cuthbert encounters two otters - James will also be guiding the choir through Britten’s Rejoice In The Lamb and Vaughan Williams’ A Vision Of Aeroplanes, Prayer To The Father Of Heaven. The concert is brought to a close with Duruflé’s Requiem, a work which the composer himself described as “often dramatic, or filled with resignation, or hope or terror”.
