With Love

Join the country’s next generation of talented singers for an evening of choral music inspired by love. The programme features both sacred and secular music and will explore the many ways in which love has been part of the choral repertoire through the ages, taking you on a journey from 16th-century Spain to 21st-century Britain. This promises to be a not-to-be-missed concert.

If you’ll also be watching the World Cup Final later, this will be the perfect complement to make for a memorable summer’s evening!
