A Summer Journey

Leicester Philharmonic Choir

 Let us take you on a magical summer journey through time and place.  Having picked up our tour guides for the evening; Bob         Chilcott, Edward Elgar, Charles V Stanford, we will depart St James the Greater at 7pm on Saturday 14th June and head south-east,   tracking down the world of Aesop’s Fables, in ancient Greece, as re-imagined by Bob Chilcott. We’ll then double back and take in the   wonders of Elgar’s Bavarian Highlands. Then on, we have Dances of Time (Chilcott) which will pirouette us to the deck of a liner.  Baritone Andrew Ashwin will ensure us a safe return home with Stanford’s Songs of the Fleet as we “Sail Away” through to the time   we say “Fare Well.” What a journey full of delight, and with the bonus of not having to pack, queue at the airport, get   sunburnt…….and  you’ll leave with a suitcase of song.
