8.00PM WESLEY METHODIST CHURCH, HAMILTON
Accompanied by the
Bermuda Festival Chamber Orchestra
Conducted by Ryan Ellis
Bermuda Chamber Choir, although an amateur choir, has earned itself an enviable reputation for its high standard of performance. Aiming to nurture the art and love of choral music, most recently under the baton of Ryan Ellis, the Choir has enriched the community with its uplifting performances of choral masterworks. For this concert, they will be joined by the newly formed Bermuda Festival Chamber Orchestra. The concert will also include a piano concerto performed by local resident Oliver Grant, who has been wowing audiences with his formidable talent. Entitled Laudate, the programme celebrates a series of anniversaries: the 200th anniversary of Haydn’s death; the 250th anniversary of Händel’s death; and of course the 400th anniversary of settlement in Bermuda.
