Luminosa Voices
at Farnham Maltings
Sunday evening 27th November 2022
“Luminosa Voices” is an Alton-based choir who are looking forward to performing Brahms “Requiem” in the Great Hall at Farnham Maltings on the evening of 27th November.
The work, written in 1868, is known as “A German Requiem” - a majestic, non-liturgical work setting sacred texts, including passages assembled by Brahms himself, from the Lutheran Bible, both Old and New Testaments. Traditionally a mass for the dead, this Requiem is more a Mass for the living, especially composed as a comfort for those left behind. The secular text is written in German, rather than the usual Latin.
The piece is scored for one piano and four hands; the interplay of pianists, Adam Blosse and Valentina Seferinova, will be exciting to watch as well as to hear.
The text and choral intensity will be at the heart of the concert, with solo performances from Ella de Jongh (Soprano) and Joe Chalmers (Baritone) with the piano as an arresting percussive element in support. The Artistic Director and Conductor will be Rebekah Abbott.
The concert takes place on Sunday 27th November in the Great Hall, Farnham Maltings at 6:00 p.m.
