Concert: Mozart Mass in C Minor
The Choir of Westminster Abbey is joined by Britten Sinfonia for this performance of Mozart’s Mass in C Minor. Members of the Abbey Choir, soprano Ailish Tynan and mezzo soprano Katie Coventry sing the solo parts in this glorious missa solemnis.
The Choir of Westminster Abbey is renowned worldwide as one of the finest ensembles of its type, its repertoire extending from plainsong and Renaissance polyphony to twentieth-century masterpieces and new commissions.
In addition to singing the daily services, as it has done since the fourteenth century, the Choir plays a central role in the many royal and state occasions which are held in the Abbey, most recently the State Funeral of Queen Elizabeth II and The Coronation of Their Majesties King Charles and Queen Camilla.
This concert takes place thanks to the generous support of David Keltner and the late Patricia Owen Keltner.
