The choir will be accompanied by celebrated soloists, Ceferina Penny, Jorge Navarro Colorado and Ashley Riches, and The Purcell Orchestra.
This will be the seventh KCS concert featuring Haydn’s beloved tour de force in their 76-year history. But it is notable as it will be the first KCS Creation in the Royal Borough since 1987. More recently in 2013 Andrew Griffiths, the KCS Musical Director, conducted KCS in an acclaimed version at Cadogan Hall.
Another special feature is that, for the first time, KCS will sing the work accompanied by The Purcell Orchestra of period instruments, enhancing the colour of music already suffused with awe, delight and humour.
For lovers of Haydn’s masterpiece, this is an unmissable event. And for those unfamiliar with it, you are in for an exhilarating ride, as Haydn’s breathtaking musical invention propels us from primal chaos, though vivid evocations of the miraculous origins of light and water and the wondrous variety of animal life, to the joyous meeting of Adam and Eve.
KCS is proud to be supported by the Humphrey Richardson Taylor Charitable Trust. less
