Edinburgh New Town Church Choir and the New Town Sinfonia join forces with soloists under the baton of Ian Munro, the choir's new Director of Music, for a programme rooted in the Italian Renaissance and Baroque eras. At its heart is Vivaldi's Gloria, one of the most beloved choral works in the repertoire, accompanied by further Italian gems from across the same periods. The performance takes place in a Church setting, giving the programme both acoustic warmth and architectural grandeur.
Why see this show?
Vivaldi's Gloria is one of those works that rewards both first-time listeners and those who know it well. Hearing it alongside other Renaissance and Baroque Italian pieces, performed by a choir, sinfonia and soloists together, makes for a rich and uplifting evening in a beautiful setting.
