St Peter’s Music: Fauré and Vaughan Williams


The usual pre-Easter concert on Friday 13 March given by the St Peter’s Church Choir and their friends will this year feature the very popular Requiem by Gabriel Fauré, reports Exmouth Road’s Chris Parrish.


As the soloist in this work we are pleased to welcome back James Birchall whose singing in The Creation last year was much acclaimed. James will also join the choir in a performance of Vaughan Williams’ Five Mystical Songs and sing the much loved song cycle Songs of Travel, also by Vaughan Williams.
