| Registered Charity Number 1095739 Latest News (March 2008): Many thanks to Matthew Greenall for conducting us in a splendid all 21st-century programme at St Peter's, Eaton Square. And thanks also to our audience for turning out in such good numbers. We hope you enjoyed it. Our next guest conductor is Stephen Jackson, to whom we extend a warm welcome. Well known as director of the BBC Symphony Chorus, he has chosen music by French composers: Poulenc, and - in their joint centenary year - Messiaen and Daniel-Lesur. The latter's Le Cantique des Cantiques forms the centrepiece of our concert at St Luke's, Chelsea, on Saturday 17th May. Stephen describes it as "one of the jewels of 20th century choral literature - mysterious, erotic and affirmative by turns..." | |  |  Listen to Poulenc's "Bois meurtri" (538kB) Listen to Thea Musgrave's "The subway piranhas" (158kB) Listen to Judith Weir's "Love bade me welcome" (368kB) Listen to Peter Gritton's arrangement of "Have yourselfa merry little Christmas" (363kB)
