John Stainer’s The Crucifixion has been popular with church choirs for more than 130 years. The RSCM’s annual lecture, this year given by Professor Jeremy Dibble, will be hosted by St Marylebone Church (the site of the The Crucifixion’s first performance) on 27 May at 4pm. Professor Dibble will deliver what is sure to be a fascinating lecture on the RSCM’s new critical edition of Stainer’s classic and provide insight into his research.
Prior to the lecture, you are invited to join in a Come and Sing workshop to learn, rehearse, and perform the piece. A copy of the RSCM’s new critical edition will be included in your ticket price. After the lecture you are invited to perform alongside the professional choir and organist in the church. It promises to be an enlightening and captivating day of learning, music and connection.
