The Northampton Bach Choir invites you to experience Then Sing We All, a concert that promises to be a unique fusion of classical
harmony and contemporary flair. Scheduled to take place at Christ Church, this musical event will showcase an eclectic mix of works
that span centuries, united by the theme of celebration through song.
In stark contrast yet complementing traditional choral music, Mass in Blue by Will Todd introduces a vibrant blend of jazz and
blues into the sacred context. This innovative mass setting, characterized by its rhythmic energy and soulful melodies, has
captivated audiences globally with its accessible, uplifting spirit.
Completing the featured works is Iain Farrington's Then Sing We All, a piece that was composed for the centenary of Twickenham
Choral and their conductor, Christopher Herrick. Farrington, known for his ability to weave diverse musical threads into cohesive,
engaging compositions, promises to deliver a work that encapsulates the joy of communal singing and the celebratory essence of the
concert's title.
Then Sing We All is not just a concert; it's a celebration of music's enduring power to bring people together, to evoke emotion,
and to transcend boundaries. The Northampton Bach Choir, under the vibrant leadership of its musical director, is thrilled to
present an evening that reflects its commitment to musical diversity and excellence.
As we navigate through these trying times, music remains a beacon of hope and joy. Then Sing We All promises to be a testament
to the resilience and beauty of the human spirit, expressed through the universal language of music. We look forward to welcoming
you to an evening that promises not only to entertain but to inspire.
