NYCOS presents Illuminare and Spirituals

One of America’s leading young composers, Elaine Hagenberg, brings us Illuminare – a beautiful and heartwarming work of sweeping melodies and rich harmonies. Performed by one of the finest choirs in the country, the National Youth Choir of Scotland, the programme is paired with Michael Tippett’s powerful and moving settings of Spirituals from his oratorio A Child Of Our Time. 'They are, beyond debate, the best choir in Scotland' (Herald). Conductor: Christopher Bell. Organ and piano: Michael Bawtree.
