Three Choirs Festival

World-renowned soloist Roderick Williams and American choir VocalEssence present this entrancing recital of English and American music which promises to inspire and uplift. Dreams, prayers and a gospel thread are woven together through sublime music, while Grieg’s final work Four Psalms forms the cornerstone of the recital: a passionate contemplation of life and the joys of heaven.
