In this Platinum Jubilee year, we will be performing a joyous programme of music celebrating the 70 year reign of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
As well as John Rutter’s exultant Gloria, we will perform coronation favourites The King Shall Rejoice (Handel), I was Glad (Parry) and Stanford’s Gloria in Excelsis, composed for the coronation of HM King George V, plus other works from the period of Queen Elizabeth I.
We are delighted to be joined by virtuosic brass band Onyx Brass for this celebratory occasion, which will be conducted by our new Director of Music Peter Asprey, in his Ealing Choral Society debut.
