We caught up with Edward Gardner to chat all about it before our performance on 6 May, bringing our London season to an almighty close ✨

Janáček: Glagolitic Mass – With Edward Gardner – 6 May 2023

Get ready for a choral work unlike any other.

For Leoš Janáček, the whole of creation was a cause for celebration, and with its joyful trumpets, thundering organ and raw, unbuttoned lust for life, there’s something primal about his Glagolitic Mass. Edward Gardner prepares the way with Mendelssohn’s beloved Violin Concerto, performed by Alina Ibragimova, before assembling huge forces to end the season with a colossal shout of joy. But first, on the day of King Charles III’s Coronation, we open with Tippett’s Suite for the Birthday of Prince Charles.
