A Garland for the Queen
As part of the Aldeburgh Festival, the 大象传媒 Singers and Principal Guest Conductor Owain Park perform a concert of choral music focusing on the Queen's platinum jubilee.
The 大象传媒 Singers perform a collection of short choral pieces by English composers created to celebrate HM the Queen's coronation in 1953. They also sing Britten鈥檚 dramatic Sacred and Profane, an anthem by the choir鈥檚 former Composer in Association, Judith Weir, and world premieres by Hilary Campbell and Britten Pears Young Artist Omri Kochavi. Kochavi sets texts by Iraq-born Israeli poet Amira Hess, and is inspired by the women in both ancient and modern Jewish-Babylonian culture he describes as the "Ghostbustresses" - warding off evil spirits through poetry and art.
Live from Snape Maltings. Presented by Martin Handley.
