The Brandenburg Choral Festival of London welcomes back St John's Voices from Cambridge for this hour-long programme of achingly beautiful choral music from the Renaissance to the present day. The repertoire includes Bach's majestic Komm, Jesu, Komm, Allegri's iconic Miserere and the London premiere of a fascinating short new work by rising star composer, David Nunn, which combines ancient plainsong with contemporary compositional techniques. Graham Walker conducts with organ accompaniment provided by Anthony Gray and David Heinze.
