Synopsis
Renowned choral conductor Stephen Layton returns to lead the Singapore Symphony Youth and Children’s Choirs in this remarkable programme spanning the 20th and 21st centuries. Joined by SSO Principal Harp Gulnara Mashurova and guest organist Harrison Cole, the choirs begin from the ancient traditions of India via Holst’s settings of Vedic poetry, traverse Poulenc’s Litanies to the Black Virgin of Rocamadour, and follow with a celebration of music by three of the greatest choral composers at the turn of the 21st century: John Tavener, Arvo Pärt and John Rutter.
