SUMMARY:Wellington Choral Society - J S BACH  Christmas Oratorio
DESCRIPTION:  \n \nCelebrate the festive season with Wellington Choral Society’s performance of J S Bach’s choral masterwork\, The Christmas Oratorio\, a wonderful exploration of the nativity which features some of Bach’s most spectacular orchestration. \nThe event takes place at 7-30 pm on Saturday November 26th at St John’s Church\, Wellington. Ticket prices are £12\, those under 18 free. Tickets are available on line at www.wellingtonchoralsociety.org.uk; from Nurtured by Nature\, South Street\, Wellington; Taunton Visitor Centre\, Market House\, Taunton; Wellington Community Offices; WCS members or on the Door. \nThe Christmas Oratorio was intended for performance in church during six separate days over the festive season. This choral masterpiece was written for the Christmas of 1734 and incorporates music from earlier compositions. It includes three cantatas written during 1733 and 1734 in praise of royalty or notable local figures. The orchestration demonstrates Bach’s most astonishing technical brilliance\, with glorious harmonies\, creating a magnificent rich sound. \nThe author of the original German text is unknown\, although a likely collaborator with Bach himself was Christian Friedrich Henri. The society will be singing Parts 1\,2\, 3 and 6 of the work in English\, using the translation and adaption by Reverend J. Troutbeck. \nConductor for the performance will be Wellington Choral Society’s Musical Director- Laurence Blyth. WCS and soloists accompanied by The Wellington Sinfonia. \n

SUMMARY:Taunton Choral Society
DESCRIPTION:This will be Stephen Bell’s final concert with TCS before he retires as Music Director after 7 years in charge. Taunton Sinfonietta provide the orchestra and soloists will be Louise Innes (mezzo-soprano) and James Geidt (baritone). \nThe concert will feature the 1980 Walker organ\, installed when Stephen arrived in Taunton as Director of Music at King’s. The organist will be Stephen’s son\, Simon Bell\, now Director of the Schola Cantorum Choir at Tewkesbury Abbey and Organist of Dean Close School\, Cheltenham. \nThe programme features both French and English music starting with Maurice Duruflé’s ‘Requiem’\, composed in 1948 in memory of his father. Similar in approach to the famous Requiem by Gabriel Faure\, it is based on plainsong-style melodies\, and is an evocative and highly atmospheric work\, ideally suited to the generous acoustic of the Chapel. \nIn the second half the focus switches to England. The choral items are both by Vaughan Williams; ‘Five Mystical Songs’ for solo baritone and chorus\, based on poems by George Herbert\, and ‘Toward the Unknown Region’\, text by the American poet Walt Whitman\, whose spiritually–charged writing appealed to the composer throughout his life. Elgar’s popular ‘Serenade for Strings’ will complete the programme. \nTickets –  £15 & £18 (students half price) – from Tourist Information Centre\, Market House\, Taunton or through our website www.tauntonchoralsociety.org.uk

SUMMARY:The Phoenix Singers – The Canticle of Brother Sun
DESCRIPTION:The Phoenix Singers \nSaturday 19th March 2016\, St John the Evangelist Church\, Taunton \nTHE CANTICLE OF BROTHER SUN \nMusic inspired by the words of prayers and hymns \nThe Phoenix Singers under their music director Andrew Maddocks\, will be performing an evening of sacred music in St John’s Church\, Taunton on Saturday 19th March at 7.30pm. \nThe concert is a programme of music inspired by the words of prayers and hymns.  Saint Francis of Assisi believed that nature itself was the mirror of God and in his ‘Canticle of the Creatures’ he mentions Brother Sun and Sister Moon.  The Phoenix Singers will sing a setting of these canticle words by Grayston Ives.  This piece became the inspiration for an evening of choral music in which composers such as John Rutter\, Vaughan Williams and Benjamin Britten feature. \nThe programme includes the 8th century words of Be thou my vision heard as a hymn and then in a very lyrical setting by Bob Chilcott.  F.S. Pierpoint’s words of For the beauty of the earth will be sung as a hymn to an adapted folk melody\, followed by John Rutter’s very famous choral setting of the same words.  John Bunyan’s words for He who would valiant be comes as a hymn in an arrangement of an English folk tune by Vaughan Williams\, followed by his setting of words from Pilgrim’s Progress\, Valiant-for-Truth.   \nEd Jenkins\, Music Director at Queen’s College\, Taunton will accompany the choir. \nFurther details can be found on the choir’s website\, whilst tickets priced £12 can be purchased online at www.thephoenixsingers.co.uk\, at the Taunton Visitor Centre or by phoning 01823 432704.
