Mathias This Worlde's Joie
We return to our residency at the Three Choirs Festival for the opening weekend of the 2025 festival in Hereford.
Mathias’s glorious This Worlde’s Joie is the highlight of this year’s opening evening concert. Joyful and exuberant, this colourful work, full of uplifting voices and chiming bells, is paired with Dvořák’s Te Deum, an electrifying and ecstatic hymn of praise.
Capturing the majestic energy of seafaring England, Ethel Smyth’s overture to her great opera The Wreckers begins this opening concert in dramatic style.
