About this Event
Phoenix Choir of Crawley invite you to an informal and inspiring day of singing, led by Bob Chilcott 'a composer whose music invites, comforts and inspires' (Time Out magazine) and 'a contemporary hero of British choral music' (The Observer).<h4>
</h4>
Five Days that changed the World takes us on a musical journey through five events: The invention of printing, the abolition of slavery, the first powered flight, the discovery of penicillin and the first man in space. In each movement, music and words come together to create a strikingly vivid and personal account of each protagonist's experience, from the printer seeing 'each letter like a person' to the astronaut commenting on the beauty of our planet from space.
Songs My Heart has taught me is a passionate four movement work, in which Bob and lyricist Delphine Chalmers explore themes of inclusivity, identity and unity.
Music hire and refreshments are included.
