Bristol Choral Society and Hilary Campbell are proud to present the world premiere of A Memory of the Ocean by Grace-Evangeline Mason.
A prominent young composer, Mason was commissioned by the Royal Philharmonic Society, with the support of the RVW Trust to compose a piece to celebrate the 150th birthday of Ralph Vaughan Williams and is inspired by his work “A Sea Symphony”.
Alongside this will be some contrasting pieces including Judith Weir’s ‘Praise Him with Trumpets’ , Elizabeth Poston’s ‘Festal Te Deum’, music by Holst and of course by Vaughan Williams himself. This will be a truly memorable concert.
