Royal Holloway Chorus
‘Lest we forget’: Festival in Memoriam

Rupert Gough, conductor

Faure: Requiem
James Whitbourn: Son of God Mass
Rihards Dubra: Te Deum

Royal Holloway’s Choirs all combine for this choral concert as a part of the Department of Music’s mini-festival marking the anniversary of the battle of the Somme. Fauré’s ever-popular Requiem Mass is combined with a contemplative new mass setting by James Whitbourn. The piece combines choir, organ and saxophone and has been described as “a masterpiece, a work that compels you to listen in a new way”. The grand finale is a Te Deum by the Latvian composer Rihards Dubra. His award-winning setting will surround the audience in sound from 3 choirs, organ, percussion, French horn and saxophone.
