    Description: Autumn Concert 2023
    'From the heart - may it go again - to the heart'.

    Composed 1819-23, with the turmoil and bloodshed of the Napoleonic Wars still fresh in his memory, Beethoven's monumental Missa Solemnis ends with a touching prayer for peace.  Join us on this Remembrance weekend for our performance of this glorious and powerful work.
