Spring concert features choral music from Gabrieli, Pergolasi and Purcell
March 3, 2024 This year’s spring concert form the Hogarth Singers will be a Baroque Festival. The programme is made up of a number of choral works including Gabrieli’s Jubilate Deo; Pergolasi’s Stabat Mater; and Purcell’s Evening Hymn. The concert will be held on Saturday 16 March at 7.30pm at the choir’s usual concert venue St Michael and All Angels Church, Bath Road, Chiswick, W4 1TT. It will be conducted by the Hogarth Singers’ Music Director Rupert Gill, and accompanied by Andrew Wells. Tickets are £15 in advance or £16 on the door. As always, children under 16 are free. Hogarth Singers evolved from a choir set up at IBM called The Meistersingers in the early 1980s. It is a registered charity which has the aim of promoting a love of choral music and developing public education in the art and science of music in all its aspects by presenting public concerts and recitals. Membership ranges between 50 – 60 people and it sings a wide range of choral music, both sacred and secular. Three concerts are staged each year but the group also organises other activities which enable the choir to sing in a new setting and to enjoy some more sociable experiences not always involving singing.
