Our Next Concert

Saturday May 12th: Elgar’s Dream of Gerontius in St Mary’s Church, Amersham.

This is a popular work, based on a long poem by Cardinal John Henry Newman, which you can read here. Elgar reduced it considerably to make a viable choral work (indeed he had to temporarily reduce more than he planned in order for it to be admitted into Worcester Cathedral in 1902, as the text broke the Thirty-nine Articles of the Church of England!)
