Grantham Choral Society’s summer concert in St Wulfram’s Church is a riot of 18th century choral music, selected by Musical Director David Humphreys to showcase a range of favourites.

The NELSON MASS is one of Haydn's masterpieces.  He wrote it during the Napoleonic Wars and subtitled it a ‘Mass for troubled times’ - so it feels especially relevant today. 

Michael Haydn was Joseph’s younger, and often overlooked, brother but he was an accomplished composer in his own right.  We’ll introduce you to his beautiful DIXIT DOMINUS, a setting of Psalm 110, which is sure to become a new favourite.

ZADOK THE PRIEST by George Frideric Handel needs no introduction. He wrote it for the coronation of George II in 1727, and it’s re-appeared at every coronation since then – and it’s still in popular demand.  (We defy you not to sing along!). 

Our programme is completed by Mozart’s EXSULTATE JUBILATE, another perennially popular work for orchestra and soprano voice. 

We’re delighted to be accompanied by four talented soloists studying at the Royal College of Music, and Helix Ensemble.

Bar open before the concert and in the interval.

Come and join us – it’s going to be a blast!

Doors Open at 6:30PM

Concert Starts at 7:30PM
