Britten Sinfonia & Tenebrae

Britten Sinfonia and Tenebrae: Seven Last Words From the Cross

A Holy Week performance to savour in the company of some of the UK’s best singers and orchestral musicians.

Two stunningly beautiful and contemplative pieces – Barber’s Adagio and Allegri’s Miserere – prepare the way for James MacMillan’s intense and emotionally direct 1994 Passiontide setting, which has deservedly become a modern classic.
