Join the SCO Chorus for an evening of profound beauty and spiritual depth. At the heart of the programme is Duruflé’s Requiem, a work of luminous serenity and consolation, blending Gregorian chant with exquisite harmonies to create one of the most beloved choral works of the 20th century. Complementing this masterpiece are Philip Glass’ Three Songs for mixed a cappella choir, hypnotic and meditative in their minimalist elegance, and Sir James MacMillan’s Miserere, a deeply moving modern reflection on faith and mercy.
Together, these works offer a journey through timeless sound worlds- intimate, transcendent, and unforgettable.
