Faire Sans Dire makes its Brandenburg Choral Festival of London debut with this candlelit late-night concert of a cappella choral music from the Renaissance and the nineteenth century. Motets by Bruckner will be heard alongside music by William Byrd and Thomas Tallis, including the latter’s remarkable 40-part motet Spem in alium, which will sound all the more fantastic in the superb acoustic of St Martin-in-the-Fields. Simon Toyne conducts this ensemble of the UK's leading choral singers, many of whom are alumni of the Tiffin Boys' Choir.
A combined ticket offer is available for this concert and the earlier concert at St Martin’s. Please contact the box office for details.
This concert will last approximately one hour without an interval.
