Songs from the Northern Lands

The Choir of Royal Holloway
Rupert Gough, director

Arvo Pärt - Magnificat
Rihards Dubra - A child’s prayer

Join the Choir of Royal Holloway for a candlelit exploration of music by the most celebrated of today’s composers from the Baltics and Scandinavia.

From Arvo Pärt’s hauntingly beautiful setting of the Magnificat to the meditative grandeur of Rautavaara’s Vigilia, this promises to be an entrancing late-night performance from one of Britain’s finest collegiate choirs.
