Live from London - Spring

VOCES8 & Jonathan Dove: The Passing of the Year

The Passing of the Year sees VOCES8, hosts of LIVE from London, presenting music rooted in nature – from extravagant Elizabethan idylls styled for queen ‘Oriana’, to Alec Roth’s rapt and soaring 'Stargazer' and Kate Rusby’s 'Underneath the Stars'. Folksong arrangements included describe the beauty of the world around us. The programme title mirrors that of Jonathan Dove’s superb song cycle 'The Passing of the Year' which evokes the beauty and mystic power of the changing seasons, describing the triumph of nature’s perpetual cycle. We’re honoured that Jonathan himself will accompany VOCES8 on the piano.
