Dr Paul Ellison speaker


Dr Paul Ellison examines two significant sacred works to be performed at the 2024 festival: Rossini’s unconventional Petite messe solennelle (1863) and Ian Venables’ powerful Requiem (2019). He will consider the ways in which such stylistically contrasting pieces can function as powerful pathways to the Divine.
