Choral Concert at Epsom College

Choral Concert at Epsom College
Some of our singers participated in a performance of Ian Assersohn’s Dies Irae last Sunday evening. This is a work scored for an adult choir, mens’ choir, soprano and baritone soloists and childrens’ choir. We sat right in the middle, in between the orchestra and the Epsom Male Voice Choir. We were surrounded by whistling, foot stamping, timpani and we could hear the magnificent soloists and orchestra clearly. The children sang absolutely beautifully and many parents commented that it had been a very moving and memorable experience. Some pointed out that Downsend pupils looked like a little field of poppies. Well done to all, may it be the first of many more performances in the community.
