Description
JS Bach's Magnificat in D is one of the best-loved works in the choral repertoire. Taken from Luke's gospel, the text is the Virgin Mary's canticle celebrating her pregnancy with the promised Messiah. In his magnificent setting, Bach amplifies the voice of an ordinary young woman as she responds to the astounding news that she would give birth to the Son of God.
Mozart's Litaniae Lauretanae, a devotional to Mary written when he was only fifteen, showcases energy and sensitive artistry, with dynamic mood shifts capturing both reverence and exuberance.
Commemorating King George II's military victory, Handel's Dettingen Te Deum is a stirring work of ceremonial splendour. A mix of regal grandeur, martial vigour and contemplation, it remains one of Handel's most celebrated pieces for state occasions.
Ealing Choral Society is joined by period instrument specialists The Hanover Band and soloists: Ruby Hughes, Ellen Mawhinney, Rebecca Leggett, Graham Neal, and James Oldfield. Peter Asprey conducts.
