2019-2020 season launched…
After a triumphant end to the choir’s 2018-19 season with a rare performance of Handel’s oratorio Athalia to celebrate the Sheldonian’s 350th birthday, we’re delighted to announce our new season commencing in Michaelmas term 2019. An exciting programme of concerts opens with Elgar’s Dream of Gerontius followed by Beethoven’s Missa Solemnis in March 2020 and closes in the June with a performance of Scarlatti’s Stabat Mater and Vaughan Williams’ Mass in G minor – not forgetting of course, our ever popular Carols for All this December.
