St Martin’s Autumn Choral Concerts
Vivaldi Magnificat: Music for Advent
Online Access
With December on the horizon, enjoy this early Christmas present of some of the finest Baroque choral music ever written. J.S.Bach’s cantata Nun komm, der Heiden Heiland was written for Advent Sunday in 1714, and sits alongside works by Heinrich Schütz, Vivaldi, Monteverdi and Isabella Leonarda – one of the most prolific female composers of the period.
The concert will be available at 7.30pm on Thursday 3rd December, and for 30 days following.
To help to get the most out of the performance, we are also delighted to offer a complimentary programme for the concert, with more details of the performers and works included. Download the programme here.
