The Sixteen's 2013 Choral Pilgrimage - The Queen of Heaven - live from Ealing Abbey starting at 8pm.
Harry Christophers and his choir explore the musical evolution of Allegri's fabled Miserere, famously written out from memory by Mozart and also transcribed later by both Mendelssohn and Liszt. This once jealously-guarded preserve of the Sistine Chapel is juxtaposed with a setting of the same text from our own times by James MacMillan. And there's also music by Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina, the Roman master hailed in his lifetime as, 'The Prince of Music.'

That's preceded at 7.30pm by a recent concert performance of Mendelssohn's Symphony No 4 'Italian' by the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra conducted by Pablo Heras-Casado
