Edward Elgar’s The Dream of Gerontius stands as a towering achievement in choral music - deeply spiritual, emotionally profound, and musically innovative. Its power to move hearts regardless of creed, continues to inspire audiences, and performers, more than a century after its creation.
Southampton Philharmonic Choir, together with SU Phil (formerly the University Choral Society) who are celebrating their 60th anniversary, invite you to hear this glorious work, under the baton of guest conductor, Stephen Hope, with the London-based, Docklands Sinfonia, and soloists Susan Bickley, John Findon and Darren Jeffery.
