Will Todd’s MASS IN BLUE & Duke Ellington’s Sacred Concert.
A wonderful evening at the Stroud Arts Festival to celebrate two composers whose skill of weaving choral and jazz together brings us an exciting and inspiring night of sacred music.
The evening starts at 7pm with Will Todd in conversation with Paul McLaughlin. An opportunity to hear a composer discussing his work and inspiration before the performance. The conversation will run from 7pm to approximately 7.20pm when there will be a short break before the performance of Ellington’s Sacred Concert at 7.30pm. The specially formed Community Choir joins the stage in the second half of the evening for Will Todd’s MASS IN BLUE.
COME AND SING!
Calling all singers! Will Todd strongly believes in music making for all, and his personal motto when directing choirs is ‘find the passion’. This is a unique and brilliant opportunity to work on a choral masterpiece with the composer and his ensemble. Register your interest in joining the choir here.
