The choir performs a substantial repertoire of sacred music every week in British cathedrals as well as productions of large-scale works and debut performances of contemporary works. Their most recent recording, that completes their series of the collected vernacular works of John Sheppard, is due for release early in 2015.<\/p>\n

Mozart\u2019s Requiem has been shrouded in mystery and rumour since it was first published. Commissioned by an anonymous stranger and completed for performance after Mozart\u2019s death under controversial circumstances, the Requiem is also a work with a complex and intricate connection to Mozart\u2019s musical forebears. ESO Principal Conductor Kenneth Woods takes listeners on a journey of discovery into the origins of Mozart\u2019s last and greatest work, heard here alongside some of the works Mozart turned to for inspiration in the final weeks of his life.<\/p>\n

Tickets for the Hereford Cathedral Concert are available through the Courtyard Box Office and for the St John\u2019s Smith Square concert from their own box office.<\/p>\n
