The world famous Tenebrae choir returns to Dorchester this month, with a varied programme of music for six voices.

The programme will have a particular focus on composer William Byrd in his 400th anniversary year, and the contemporary, starting with Britten and culminating in several beautiful folk arrangements by Chilcott.

The choir is a favourite with Dorset audiences, and tickets are selling fast for this concert at St Mary's Church.

Tenebrae is renowned for its highly-acclaimed interpretations of choral music, ranging from the Renaissance through to contemporary choral masterpieces, and is a dedicated advocate for new music.

Alongside its busy concert and recording schedule, the choir runs a thriving Learning & Connection programme, as well as choral workshops for students and amateur singers all over the world. 

Don't miss an evening of choral music-making at its best, with thanks to Duke's Auctioneers for its welcome support of this Dorchester Arts event.

Tickets available from the Dorchester Arts box office on 01305 266926 or from https://www.dorchesterarts.org.uk/2022/12/01/sat-11-february-tenebrae/
