St Martin’s Voices: Heaven and Earth
Tuesday 10 June 2025
7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
St Martin’s Voices and Artist in Residence Imogen Whitehead present a programme of music for choir and trumpet, featuring visions of heaven in James MacMillan’s timeless In splendoribus sanctorum and Jonathan Dove’s Oh this wondrous sea, contrasted with the more earthly delights of a rural English railway platform in Phillip Cooke’s Invocation. The programme also includes the first performance of a new work by Emily Hazrati.
Part of the Choral Discovery Concerts series, which invites audiences to discover lesser known, thought-provoking choral music in short concerts with St Martin’s Voices.
