The Choral Pilgrimage 2016: The Deer’s Cry

Our 16th Choral Pilgrimage celebrates the work of William Byrd and Arvo Pärt, composers from very different eras, both of whom are considered masters of sacred music despite having faced considerable persecution for their work. This programme explores the different ways in which Pärt uses his unique ‘Tintinabuli’ style to mesmerising effect, and we revisit a piece we performed at our very first Choral Pilgrimage, Byrd’s beautiful Ad Dominum cum tribularer.
