Music for Remembrance, Peace, and Reconciliation
Bath Abbey Choirs directed by Huw Williams
Returning from singing at The Menin Gate in Belgium and visiting the Great War graves, the Abbey choirs present Fauré’s beautiful and much-loved Requiem on Remembrance Weekend. As we celebrate Sir John Rutter’s 80th birthday, we perform his exquisite Hymn to the Creator of Light which was written in memory of Herbert Howells.
We remember Orlando Gibbons on this the 400th anniversary of his death, as we sing his poignant Drop, drop slow tears. During this the 275th anniversary of the death of J S Bach we perform his elegant motet, Der Geist hilft, which was written in 1729 for the funeral of a blessed Rector, Professor Ernesti.
Performed by candlelight with poignant readings – this will be a beautiful evening as we remember those who have given their lives in the service of their country.
