This November, Bearsden Choir will bring a landmark choral performance to the Glasgow City Halls combining the vibrant rhythms of Baroque Italy and the passionate pulse of modern Argentine tango with accordion, strings and piano.
⭐ ANTONIO VIVALDI – GLORIA: The much-loved masterpiece of Baroque choral music – full of energy and vibrant rhythms.
⭐ SCOTTISH PREMIERE: MARTÍN PALMERI – MISATANGO: A vibrant and passionate fusion of the traditional Latin Mass with irresistible rhythms of Argentine tango and the characteristic sound of the accordion.
Expect an evening full of passion, rhythm, toe-tapping and some truly glorious music brought vividly to life by Bearsden Choir, conducted by Andrew Nunn, and together with the phenomenal Ryan Corbett (Accordion), Rose Stachniewska (Soprano), Lauren Young (Mezzo Soprano), Claire Haslin (Piano) and the McOpera Ensemble
Two centuries. Two musical traditions. One unforgettable evening. Put the date in your diary — you don’t want to miss this one!
