SUMMARY:Winter Concert entitled The Private Music
DESCRIPTION:Winter Concert with Somerset Chamber ChoirWe are thrilled that our Patron\, Dame Emma Kirkby\, will join us for this concert\, to perform a small selection of works from the golden age of English Lute Song. \nProgramme to include: \nBYRD Four-Part Mass\nTALLIS Lamentations of Jeremiah I\nDOWLAND Lute Songs \nEmma Kirkby soprano\nAndrea Brown conductor \nThe Private Music… by composers writing in circumstances of exile – some forced to leave Protestant England for their Catholicism\, some obliged through fear to write music for secret ceremony\, others removed from meaningful positions and effectively exiled in their own homes. \nThis will be the choir’s first concert in the Minster since 1992 and we are very excited to return to such a beautiful building right in the centre of Taunton. For her first concert directing the choir\, Andrea has chosen Renaissance music of singular beauty which is sure to transport the audience to a place of utter calm and tranquillity. \nTickets will go on sale towards the end of this year; Friends of the Choir will enjoy a priority booking period for this concert as usual\, and tickets will be available to the public shortly after that – full details of where and how to buy tickets will be shown here soon. But before tickets go on sale\, you can register your interest in buying tickets by emailing us now through the Contact page here\, then we will contact you after public booking has opened.\nIf you would like to be kept informed of booking dates for this and all future concerts\, please subscribe to our e-mailing list using the form on the Home page\, and for more information about the Friends Scheme\, please click here.

SUMMARY:Blackdowns Early Music Projects - A Choral Feast from 1623
DESCRIPTION:Four hundred years after the death of William Byrd\, we still delight in singing a huge number of his works. For him music was an entire language\, telling of the religious changes through his lifetime as well as describing the lighter side of life. \n1623 saw the passing of two other notable composers: \nThomas Weelkes\, a prolific composer and organist at Winchester and then Chichester Cathedral\, by all accounts a somewhat controversial fellow in Church circles. \nDanish composer Mogens Pedersøn was the most highly regarded musician in the court of Christian IV. He studied extensively in Italy and accompanied the entourage of Anne of Denmark when she came to England to marry James I of England and VI of Scotland\, possibly meeting William Byrd during his several years in London.

SUMMARY:Lunchtime Concert - My Spirit Sang All Day
DESCRIPTION:The Wilbye Quartet\nFour voices got together during Covid restrictions and have continued singing since then\, performing music both sacred and secular in the South West. \nOur programme for Spring 2023 is a survey of English Song spanning seven centuries\, from Greensleeves and the first known round\, through the Renaissance period to the late 19th – early 20th century. \nThe richness and scope of English song repertoire through the centuries presents a huge problem for the Quartet: how to limit the programme to under an hour? The result of many hours of trying out pieces\, we have cherry-picked some of the best known and loved songs through the ages\, as well as a few of our personal favourites. \nThough the list can’t be comprehensive we have tried to present a thumbnail sketch\, with music by Henry VIII\, Byrd\, Dowland\, Wilbye\, Tallis and Purcell to Elgar\, Finzi\, and Vaughan Williams and others. \nDrinks will be available before the concert. \nThere will be a retiring collection in aid of St Margaret’s Hospice and St John’s Church. \nThis event has been sponsored by Invest SW
