Past Events in the 2000s:
Service for Passiontide - 2000 April

Apocalypse Singers

"In church on the evening of Passion Sunday, we heard the debut of the stunning new chamber choir, The Apocalypse Singers, conducted by Chris Hodges which added a delightful dimension to the music at St. James's.

The Service for Passiontide in Music and Words included Allegri Miserere, the Passion by Victoria and works by Lassus and Purcell. The choir demonstrated their skill in unaccompanied singing of 17th century music, particularly notable being the setting of the Passion by Victoria and 'I am the Resurrection' by Orlando Gibbons. The balance and beauty of tone was truly memorable.

Bruckner, Victoria and Gibbons, together with readings and a meditation. We look forward to more."
