Monday - Hymn to St Cecilia

Celebrating the patron saint of music and Britten's birthday with the 蜜芽传媒 Singers, plus a new work by award-winning composer, pianist and educator Kristina Arakelyan.

Fortuitously, Benjamin Britten's birthday fell on St Cecilia's day, the patron saint of music. The 蜜芽传媒 Singers join organist Anna Lapwood for music by him and by rising young composer Kristina Arakelyan. There's also the first part of one of the first ever operas, orchestral music by Dvorak and John Foulds, and a delightful late work by Richard Strauss.
