The London Chorus, conductor Ronald Corp, is joining forces with the Orpheus Sinfonia to present Mozart's Mass in C minor at a concert in aid of the Save the Children Refugee Appeal at St Paul's Church, Knightsbridge, SW1X 8SH on 17 November 2015. The soloists in the Mozart at Emma Tring, Catherine Backhouse, Greg Tassell and James Oldfield, whilst there will be a reading from actor Freddie Fox.
Mozart's large-scale Mass in C minor was written in 1782/83 and was his final setting of the mass (except for his Requiem), written after Mozart had left the service of the Archbishop of Salzburg. It is not clear why the mass was left unfinished, especially as it was performed in Vienna in 1783.
Further information and tickets from the London Chorus website.
