Pakefield Singers

HIDDEN: Music of Mystery and Meditation
Saturday 19th July
St Peter Mancroft Church

Pakefield Singers make a return visit to St Peter Mancroft to perform sublime pieces inspired by, and to complement the art installation, ‘Hidden’ by renowned ecclesiastical sculptor Peter Walker, which will be suspended in the church above the choir.

The programme will include pieces by Tavener, O Magnum Mysterium by Lauridsen, described by the composer as ‘a quiet song of profound inner joy’. Gjeilo’s O Lux Beata, with oboe accompaniment; the Benedictus from The Armed Man alongside music by Mozart, Bach, Mendelssohn, Fauré and others.

There will be solo pieces as well by Tim Patient, who is no stranger to Pakefield Singers or St Peter Mancroft, on piano and organ, and Oboist Julian Kirk, will play the haunting 'Gabriel’s Oboe' from the film The Mission.

A fitting climax to the concert will be the glorious Antiphon from Vaughan Williams’ Five Mystical Songs: Let all the world in ev’ry corner sing.
