Described as ‘a fine body of singers’ by John Packwood in the Bristol Evening Post, they have delighted audiences with their fresh, inspiring interpretations of choral repertory from many centuries. Members of the choir come from many parts of the UK for intensive weekends of music-making, culminating in concerts acclaimed for their invigorating choral sound, clarity of tone and texture, and innovative programming. In June 2010 Harmonia Sacra were invited to perform a programme of music by early seventeenth-century English Recusant musicians (including William Byrd, Richard Dering and Peter Philips) for a Swansea University History conference at Oystermouth. The concert featured a unique and rare exhibition of seventeenth-century books and music...    less

For English description, see below. En una impresionante muestra de talento, los alumnos de la Secundaria de Colegio Sembradores de Amistad de San Luis Potosí, México nos enseñan que la música es el lenguaje universal que nos une a todos y rompe todas las barreras de distancia y tiempo. Cada uno de ellos se ha aprendido y grabado individualmente con su voz o instrumento una parte de esta canción original, para después juntarlas para dar como resultado este maravilloso despliegue hecho por estos jóvenes de entre 13 y 15 años con motivo de la ceremonia de graduación de la generación 2011-2014. Estos jóvenes nos demuestran que lo único que hace falta para lograr tus metas es arriesgarte y dar todo de tí. Más de la tercera parte de ellos (incluída la solista) jamás habían cantado en público hasta este momento. La música nos une, permite alzar nuestra voz al universo y con ella "Ni la distancia podrá separarnos". Composición y Producción: Prof. Homar Sánchez Díaz Solistas: ...    less

Chris has written many of Show Of Hands’ big hits including, ‘Lily and the Rose’ which he wrote for Miranda Sykes and The Lost Sound. We’ve performed this together with Show Of Hands, at their 25thAnniversary concert in The Royal Albert Hall in 2017. Chris explains the background of ‘Though We Lie Underground’ for us: I first came across the stories surrounding the curious tradition of West Country miners singing Carols underground when listening to a recording of Alan Lomax’s extraordinary live BBC 1957 broadcast “Sing Christmas and the Turn of the Year”, a feat of radio genius involving hundreds of performers and groups all over the country, seamlessly brought together for one scintillating hour. At one point, Lomax described how the miners of Devon and Cornwall would celebrate Christmas underground in an almost pagan fashion: they would select the largest lump of tin ore they could handle, set it up in...    less
