Event information
IKON Singers & David Hill (conductor)
with the Oakham School Chamber Choir &
Rutland Youth Choir
Herbert Howells - Requiem
John Rutter - Dancing Tree (UK premiere)
Join us for an exciting evening of choral music in Oakham School Chapel! The first half of the concert will feature Howells’ Requiem and an arrangement of his solo song, King David, for choir and piano. In the second half, we will hear the UK première of John Rutter’s Dancing Tree, a set of eight songs that draws upon the poetry of Cornish writer Charles Causley. Conducted by David Hill, the professional singers of IKON will be accompanied by Anne Bolt. We are delighted that young musicians from Oakham School and Rutland Youth Choirs will enjoy a pre-concert workshop and perform a combined piece alongside the professional musicians.
