Fairhaven Singers, under dynamic conductor Ralph Woodward, are thrilled to join with the London Mozart Players and two stellar soloists (Miriam Allan and Alex Ashworth) in two famous English masterpieces. Handel’s powerful funeral anthem for his friend Queen Caroline drips with raw emotion, while Vaughan Williams’s passionate anti-war cantata (in Jonathan Rathbone’s superb orchestration) takes us on a vivid journey through anxiety, conflict and mourning to an ecstatic vision of peace and goodwill.
