Join Ripon Choral Society for an inspiring day of music-making as we explore and perform John Rutter’s Requiem.
Combining the traditional Latin Requiem text with English psalms and prayers, the Requiem offers music of great beauty, comfort and emotional depth. From the soaring melodies of Pie Jesu to the radiant optimism of The Lord is My Shepherd, it is a rewarding and enjoyable work for singers of all abilities.
The day will culminate in an informal performance, giving participants the chance to share the music they have prepared with family, friends and fellow music lovers. We are always looking for new singers, so this is your chance to meet us in an informal setting.
