Well, it has been quite a busy old few days. Thursday were were at the first night of Ariodante, friday we had the first rehearsal for the FifteenB concert at the Chelsea Festival, Sunday morning St. George's Church, Hanover Square performed my Missa Veni Sancte Spiritus as 11.00am Sung Eucharist and the in the evening we saw Grange Park Opera's new production of Massenet's Thais
The Mass at St. George's came off brilliantly, the choir sang the Kyrie, Gloria, Sanctus/Benedictus and Agnus Dei so we had a musical feast. It was the first time that I had heard the 4-part version of the mass and I thought that it worked very well. The performance was excellent.
We enjoyed Thais immensely and a review will appear later this week.
