NoonSong: Jubilation and Wonders - Music from a Distant Time
The church on Hohenzollernplatz provides the ideal setting for a performance of clear and powerful melodies by Anglican composers for choir and organ. The musical performance evokes the atmosphere of famous English cathedrals. Herbert Howells’ music is characterized by a special intensity and a deeply moving quality. It offers listeners an extraordinary experience.
