Schubert Psalm 23
Part Songs
Mendelssohn Hear my prayer
Brahms Motets
Brahms Liebesliederwaltzer
This small chamber choir was formed some eight years ago and Sebastian Forbes, well known to Guildford audiences for many years, took over its conductorship last summer. This concert focuses on three everlasting favourites from the Austro-German school: Schubert's Psalm 23, Mendelssohn's Hear my prayer, and Brahms's Love song Waltzes, together with a few lesser known works by these great composers in the ideal acoustic of Guildford's United Reformed Church.
