The 120th Anniversary Concert will feature two well-loved choral works – Fauré’s Requiem and John Rutter’s exuberant, flamboyant Gloria, together with shorter works by the two composers, and César Franck’s Panis Angelicus. The singers will be joined by Bungay Primary School Choir and accompanied by Tim Patient for the first part of the programme.

An orchestra to accompany the Fauré Requiem after the interval will join Tim. Soloists will be Lucy Harvey, who comes from Bungay, and Frazer Scott, both making a welcome return. Lucy’s operatic roles include Barbarina and the Countess in Mozart’s Le Nozze di Figaro and Cis in Britten’s Albert Herring. Frazer currently sings with the Birmingham Conservatoire and has recently completed a highly successful tour of the Czech Republic.

The Society is looking forward to this performance and hoping for a large audience
