Creation Mass/Vespers

25-03-2018 19:30 - 22:00
St Oswald's Church Bollington
Address: 7 Bollington Rd, Bollington, Macclesfield SK10 5EG, UK

Josef Haydn and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, the old master and the young prodigy, delighted their listeners in the late 18th century and continue to do so over 200 years later. Haydn’s late Creation Mass is so called because he quoted music from Adam and Eve’s duet in the Gloria, thereby scandalising the Empress Maria Theresa. Mozart’s Solemn Vespers K339, soloists from the RNCM, and orchestra all contribute to an uplifting evening.
