SCO Chorus
Gregory Batsleer Chorus Director
Philip Higham Cello
The simple beauty of unaccompanied voices – what better way to celebrate the coming festive season?
The SCO Chorus’s annual Christmas concert has become a firm fixture in Scotland’s musical calendar: experience the singers’ radiant tones under expert Director Gregory Batsleer in music to warm your heart and lift your spirit.
Francis Poulenc provides four exquisite miniature scenes from the nativity story, while revered choral composer and conductor Eric Whitacre’s Lux Aurumque is a shimmering contemplation of the season, and SCO Associate Composer Jay Capperauld unveils a brand new-choral piece, a setting of Niall Campbell's poem The Night Watch.
*Commissioned by the Scottish Chamber Orchestra
