Innovation and Invention

Milton Keynes Chorale

Music incuding: Ceclia McDowall: Da Vinci Requiem, Boulanger: Hymne au Soleil, Mvula: Sing to the Moon, Eriks Ešenvalds: Stars and Gesualdo: O vos omnes

This is a concert of music that pushes boundaries, that challenges, and that does things in new ways. The inventive programme has Cecelia McDowall’s 2019 Requiem as its focus - a work that uses the normal Requiem text along with fragments from the notebooks of Leonardo da Vinci to create a new and exciting work.

Other music embraces a Sun, Moon and Stars theme, with its beautiful and innovative music by Boulanger, Mvula and Eriks Ešenvalds.  A concert full of truly wonderful music.
