Put your busy life on hold for a brief time and immerse yourself in the beauty and poignancy of Benjamin Britten's Canticles. These works for singers and piano cut straight to the heart of what it means to be human, with all its complicated emotions and relationships. In the intimate setting of Christ Church, let go of your to-do list and reconnect with what makes you, you.

Giovanni Pergolesi's Stabat Mater is considered one of the masterworks of the Italian Baroque period, its achingly beautiful phrases evoking the pain and anguish of the suffering and death of Christ. Set in this performance with sparse orchestration and paired with other works by contemporaries J.S. Bach and Vivaldi, we invite you to dwell in the beauty and power of these works from the heart of the Baroque.
