One of the UK’s finest orchestras, alongside the extraordinary power of this wonderful, massed choir in the glorious surroundings of Gloucester Cathedral provide the perfect setting for these four moving pieces from the last century. Our 150th anniversary celebration of Holst’s birth would not be complete without The Hymn of Jesus, one of his most popular and uplifting pieces, partnered with a lush piece for harp and strings by Holst’s friend and collaborator Vaughan Williams. We then cross the Channel to France, with an intimate piece of choral Messiaen, followed by Poulenc's liturgical masterpiece, the stunningly uplifting Gloria.
