SINGERS CELEBRATE ITALIAN COMPOSER’S ANNIVERSARY

The Ripieno Choir will be giving a concert on Saturday March 22 to celebrate the 500th anniversary of the birth of Palestrina, the 16th century Italian composer.

The choir, which includes several singers from Claygate, and which specialises in Renaissance and Baroque music, will be pairing some of Palestrina’s magnificent settings of sacred texts with settings of the same words by a variety of more recent composers.

The concert at 7.30pm in All Saints, Weston Green, includes part of Palestrina's wonderful Missa Papae Marcelli. Refreshments will served at the reception in the church hall after the concert. For more details, and to buy tickets, visit http://ripienochoir.org.uk/concerts/palestrina-in-rome/
