St John Singers Summer Concert

Joseph Haydn's Missa Sancti Nicolai

Malcolm Archer's Vespers

Mendelssohn Hear my prayer

St John Singers presents  our Summer Concert in St Thomas's with soloists and orchestra. As always it will be a warm and friendly evening with wine in the interval and a chance to chat to friends. 

The concert contains three contrasting
works. We hear the epitome of the Classical style, in
Haydn’s Missa ‘Sancti Nicolai’; melodic restraint set
against Romantic outbursts in Mendelssohn’s
Hear my prayer; and Malcolm Archer’s Vespers -
beautiful settings of texts by Shakespeare, Yeats,
C S Lewis, and from the Book of Common Prayer.

We are delighted to be accompanied by:
Sam Bristow (Mendelssohn), and by an orchestra
led by Daphne Moody, for the Haydn and Archer.

This concert will be in aid of choir funds.
