A programme of choral music from recent composers, including Charles Paterson (a former member and Chair of the Leicester Bach Choir) who, sadly passed away late in 2024.

The oldest of the works in this programme was written, we believe, in 1997!

Whilst some of the items are unaccompanied choral works, others, such as the Tavener and Macmillan in particular, will enable the wonderful Simon Hogan to stretch the magnificent organ at St James the Greater to its full extent!
