Event information

Five centuries of penitential psalm settings from all around Europe: from France to Estonia, from Italy to Denmark. Mini-masterpieces by Mendelssohn (‘Hear my Prayer’) and Arvo Pärt (‘An den Wassern zu Babel’) rub shoulders with English choral favourites by Purcell and Howells. And a few surprises such as music by a 17th century Italian nun, Margarita Cozzolani, and Lichtenstein’s most famous composer, Josef Rheinberger.
