Pegasus returns to the Brandenburg Choral Festival of London with a beautiful programme of choral works, featuring Gabriel Fauré’s renowned setting of the Requiem mass, alongside music from our forthcoming CD of works written in the shadow of the First World War, For the Fallen.

Our programme includes works by Brahms, Mendelssohn, Holst, Wood and Ravel. We will also sing a stunning arrangement for sixteen-part choir of Gustav Mahler’s Ich bin der Welt abhanden gekommen and William Walton’s anthem The Twelve, a bravura setting of words by W.H. Auden. Matthew Altham directs the choir, with organ accompaniment by Martin Toyer.

The concert is part of the Brandenburg Choral Festival of London 2015 Autumn Series.  Tickets are £18 (children £5). To order, click here.
