About

Bradford Festival Choral Society invites you to - Echoes of Eternity: Music for Choir and Organ. A powerful celebration of choral grandeur, from Parry’s resplendent I Was Glad and Blest Pair of Sirens to Vierne’s magnificent Messe Solennelle, written for the spectacular surroundings of Notre Dame.  The ancient Gregorian chant Ave maris stella meets Judith Weir’s vivid reimagining and Anna Thorvaldsdottir’s Heyr þú oss himnum á offers an otherworldly moment of contemplation.  We’re delighted to include music with strong Yorkshire connections – motets recently written by Daniel Justin and Anthony Gray – and we’re joined by the brilliant organist William Campbell, Assistant Director of Music at Bradford Cathedral, for this programme.
