Salvator Mundi

Cambridge Chorale returns to the stunning setting of the Church of Our Lady and the English Martyrs (OLEM), Cambridge to present a programme of choral masterpieces for Passiontide by Herbert Howells, Alonso Lobo and Frank Martin. Both Howells’ Requiem and Martin’s Mass date from the first half of the 20th century and were so personal to both composers that they withheld their manuscripts from publication for many years. Thankfully, the manuscripts were eventually released, and the sheer beauty of the music made available to all. Full of Renaissance Iberian Catholic flavour, Lobo’s Lamentations are sublime and deeply moving.

Location: Church of Our Lady and the English Martyrs (OLEM), Cambridge

Tickets: £13, £11 seniors, £6 students/U16 on the door. £1 discount for advance booking.
