Recent Concert in Malmesbury

As well as painting, music makes the world go round,
The Bath Bach Choir preformed their summer concert in Malmesbury Abbey. We did a set of Tchaikovsky Vespers and the Requiem by Gabriel faure, which  we'd sung the previous week, jointly with members of Darius Millaud Choir from Aix-en-Provence who had paid us a return visit after our trip to sing with them Aix in 2013.



This is a rendering of  a short  encore piece. Otche Nash (The Lords Prayer) by Nikolai Kedrov which  we sang in Russian and were required to memorize by heart, (a very difficult task!).

  1. Hi Andrew... Long time no see ... or talk. How my heart swelled with joy to hear these human voices lifted in praise and in unison... as opposed to the anger and devisiveness that is so prevalent around the globe.

    Thank you for sharing your art and this beautiful choral offering. It provided me great Hope and new courage to forge ahead myself.

    Happy Summer and Good Painting to you!
    Warmest regards,
    Bruce
