Summer Concert
The Addison singers turn to folk and traditional music for their Summer Concert at St Michael and All Angels Church. The climax of the show is the Missa Criolla (written in 1964) by the Argentine composer Ariel Ramirez, in which popular and liturgical styles join hands across the centuries.
There is folk and traditional music from the UK with pieces by Timothy Salter and Percy Grainger, whilst John Rutter's Childhood Lyrics pay homage to familiar nursery rhymes. Familiar tunes are also the inspiration for John Gardner's Five Hymns in the Popular Style

"Singers and players from West London Bach Consort and Players and other friends will be performing a short part of Bach’s Christmas Oratorio (the “shepherd” part), his Brandenburg Concerto No 5 (with soloists Louise and Patrick Grattan and Andrew Carter), starting and finishing with lovely motets in honour of the Blessed Virgin by Holst, Britten, Bruckner and the American composer Morten Lauridsen.
"It will be followed by an impromptu party for performers and audience upstairs, with drinks, light eats and a singalong. Free admission, but we will be collecting for CANA ETHIOPIA, which supports Cana school in Northern Ethiopia (where the Queen of Sheba may have hailed from). Do join us if you are free.”
