A Sea Symphony is an alliance of souls between Vaughan Williams noblehearted Englishness and Walt Whitman’s ecstatic free-thinking liberality. From the opening page we hear and feel the spray of the sea through massed forces of choir and full orchestra.

Gavin Carr, Conductor

Beethoven’s Mass in C is less well known than it deserves to be, probably overshadowed by the extraordinary Missa Solemnis. It contains some of his most beautiful vocal writing and is a major work which we are very excited to be reviving in Bath.

We are also delighted to continue our association with the great trumpet virtuoso, Crispian Steele-Perkins, who will play Haydn’s ever popular concerto and has also promised to perform the famous trumpet call in the Leonora no 3 Overture!
