🗓 Sunday 15 November 2026
⏰ 3.00pm
📍 Bradshaw Hall, Royal Birmingham Conservatoire
Our programme explores the many ways music can reflect on the passing of time — bringing together works filled with energy, beauty, drama and reflection.
🌿 Bob Chilcott – Dances of Time
A lively and characterful collection of five choral songs, exploring different aspects of time through a wonderfully varied range of texts and dance-inspired musical styles.
🍂 Gustav Holst – Brook Green Suite
✨ John Rutter – When Icicles Hang
A beautiful cycle of choral settings featuring poetry by Thomas Campion, William Shakespeare and others, accompanied by a small orchestra.
🥁 Joseph Haydn – Mass in Time of War (Paukenmesse)
The concert concludes with Haydn’s dramatic and powerful Mass in Time of War, famous for its striking use of timpani in the Agnus Dei.
With music that moves from intimate reflection to exhilarating orchestral and choral sound, Dances of Time promises a memorable afternoon of live music.
🎟 Tickets: £29 | Full-time students: £10 | Under 16s: Free
The concert runs for approximately two hours, including an interval.
