THE Ilkley based choir Cantores Olicanae present their swinging Summer Concert ‘In Blue’ on Saturday, June 15th at 7.30pm in St Margaret’s Church, Ilkley.
The concert features Will Todd’s ‘Mass in Blue’ - an upbeat jazz setting of the Latin text mass. This work has an unusual and imaginative score and has been described as ‘electrifying’!
The programme also includes ever-popular classic songs and ballads such as Rodgers and Hart’s ‘Blue Moon’, the Judy Garland signature tune ‘Over the Rainbow’, Irving Berlin’s ‘Blue Skies’ and a beautiful arrangement of ‘The White Cliffs of Dover’ by Paul Ayres.
The concert will be led by Rory Wainwright Johnston, the Musical Director of Cantores Olicanae, and accompanied by the jazz trio, Motion Complex.
Tickets: £12, students £5, under 14s free and are available from The Grove Music Shop, Ilkley, the Tourist Information Centre, online at Eventbrite or ring 01943 830873. Tickets are also available on the door.
