Award-winning choir Tenebrae, one of the world's leading vocal ensembles, returns to Grayshott for the first time in over a decade with a programme taking us on a spiritual
and historical journey through the development and influence of Renaissance polyphony.
Showcasing this particular musical texture - where two or more lines of independent melody are sung simultaneously, our musical journey will begin in Renaissance Spain and
Italy with the sublime music of Lobo, Victoria and Allegri, before moving westwards to Mexico for Padilla's Missa ego flos campi. Moving on to Germany, prepare
to be moved by compositions from Brahms, Bruckner and Reger, performed with the passion and precision for which the Tenebrae is renowned.
Conductor:
Nigel Short

Tickets: £40 and £30
Booking is now open for Friends of Grayshott Concerts and non-Friends
Karl Jenkins, patron of Grayshott Concerts and as the most performed living composer in the world, returns to St Luke's for the first time since 2019. At this, our 2022 Gala evening, Robert Lewis will be conducting The Healer - A Cantata for St Luke, specially commissioned by us and originally premiered here in 2014.
Taking inspiration from St Luke's Gospel, the Book of Common Prayer and The Shepherd by William Blake and incorporating text written by Terry Waite, Carol Barratt and our very own Vivien Harrison, it promises to be an unmissable evening. We are delighted that our choir-in-residence, Excelsis, and all the original premiere soloists alongside the
London Mozart Players will be joining us to perform this very special work.

In a totally new venture for us, to complete our 2022 programme we are focusing on 20th century music from not one but two American composers, namely Samuel Barber
and Aaron Copland. From Barber's hauntingly compelling Adagio for Strings to Copland's relentlessly lively Hoedown, this concert promises to take
you on a rollercoaster of emotions.
Other works on the evening's programme, delivered with technical excellence and musicality as ever by the London Mozart Players, include Barber's Violin
Concerto and Copland's Appalachian Spring and Quiet City.

Join us for the ultimate in theatrical classical music with a full performance of Handel’s Messiah! from London Mozart Players and Pegasus, one of London’s top choirs, conducted by Adrian Butterfield. Since its premiere some 280 years ago, Messiah! has become the single most-performed piece of classical music worldwide.
Handel’s oratorio is based on the Old and New Testaments and delivered here in a most fitting venue at St Luke’s Grayshott. Now often associated with Christmas, it was in fact originally written for Easter, as while the first section focuses on the birth of Christ, it subsequently moves on to cover his death, and resurrection with the wonderful Hallelujah chorus.

beautiful music including Bruch's Violin Concerto, Mozart's Magic Flute and Mendelssohn's Symphony No 3.
Shoshanah has previously delighted Grayshott audiences with performances including Enchantment, a new work written especially for her by Karl Jenkins which
