“In the beginning…” Haydn’s masterpiece immerses us in the creation narrative. From the musical representation of chaos to the operatic love duet of Eve and Adam, join us as all of creation is brought to life in musical technicolour including darkness and light, earth, sea, sky, the birds, the lion and tiger, the whale, and even the lowly worm. Some fifty years since its founding, King’s Lynn Festival Chorus celebrates its own creation in this special concert.

Verdi’s Requiem is often described as an opera in liturgical dress — an outpouring of grief, fury, and hope on an epic scale. Richard Blackford’s acclaimed chamber arrangement for two pianos, organ, and timpani brings the raw emotional power of Verdi’s vocal writing into stark, intimate focus. Conducted by Music Director, Ben Horden, who marks 10 years with the ensemble, witness the visceral terror of the ‘Dies irae’ and the soaring beauty of the ‘Lacrimosa’ in this extraordinary choral showcase.
