Join us for a special evening as we collaborate with Anton Bruckner Choir for the first time to perform Bach’s extraordinarily complex masterpiece The Mass in B minor at Smith Square Hall (formerly St, John’s, Smith Square).

Mass in B Minor with Anton Bruckner Choir

Sinfonia Smith Square

Powerful, passionate, hypnotic – in a time of turmoil and amid the shock of war, Rachmaninov turned to the choral heritage he held dear, and created one of the most awe-inspiring vocal masterpieces.

Verdi Requiem

Southbank Centre

Passionate, majestic and intense: join Ex Cathedra and the CBSO for Beethoven's most profound masterpiece.
Beethoven devoted four years to his monumental Missa solemnis. Passionate, majestic and intense, nothing he composed surpasses it for scale, sincerity or vision. A work Jeffrey Skidmore loves dearly, it will be a highlight of his final season – marking Beethoven’s bicentenary with music performed ‘from the heart that it may go to the heart’.
