Featuring James Burton (conductor) & James Keefe (piano).
A day (10am - 4pm) of singing, study, and musical friendship alongside James Burton and members of Ex Cathedra.
Cherubini’s Requiem was admired by Beethoven and performed at his memorial in 1827. Sitting at the heart of the early Romantic tradition, the music alternates between hushed, prayer-like passages and more dramatic choral writing, not least in the Dies irae. Come and explore this unjustly neglected masterpiece with us.
Singers of all ages and levels of experience welcome. If you are under the age of 18 you will need to be accompanied by an adult, or you can contact education@excathedra.co.uk who will then invite you to join our Academy of Vocal Music for this event, for safeguarding purposes.
