In the Evening Light
On the evening of Saturday 25th April the Harborough Singers will make a rare appearance at Market Harborough Methodist Church, Northampton Road. The choir will perform a concert of music inspired by the phrase ‘In the Evening Light’. Perfect for a sunset performance on a spring evening, conductor Charlie Penn has searched high and low for beautiful pieces so that the choir can present their choral reflections at the close of day. Charlie’s selection includes well-known tunes like ‘Loch Lomond’ and the Spiritual ‘Deep River’, as well as classical offerings such as Rheinberger’s Evening Song and Charles Wood’s ‘Music, when soft voices die’, right through to exquisite modern pieces such as Tichele’s ‘Earth Song’ and Whitacre’s ‘A boy and a girl’ which the choir enjoy singing very much.
Later in the year the choir takes the same repertoire plus extra pieces ‘on tour’ and will fly the flag for Market Harborough during a week of performances in the spectacular Austrian capital of Vienna.
The concert begins at 7.30pm and tickets are £15. Get them online or through Adele at the Box Office.
