Join the Christ's Hospital Choral Society for an inspiring evening of choral masterworks that span centuries, from the Baroque to today.
The programme opens with the radiant 'Magnificat', a work of graceful counterpoint and devotional beauty. Contemporary composer Tarik O’Regan brings a fresh voice with his striking Triptych, weaving together luminous harmonies and rhythmic energy in a modern meditation on spiritual themes.
The second half and the heart of the concert is Antonín Dvořák’s Mass in D Major, Op. 86, a deeply personal expression of faith. Written originally for choir, soloists, and organ in a country chapel in Lužany, this “Lužany Mass” blends intimacy, lyricism, and heartfelt devotion. From the jubilant Gloria to the serene closing Agnus Dei, Dvořák’s Mass radiates both simplicity and profound beauty.
The choir will be conducted by Jonathan Lee with organ and strings accompaniment.
Tickets £15 in advance, £20 on the door. Under 18s £5

Emma Bovary is living a dull life, shackled by the rules and expectations of the patriarchal world in which she lives. Desperate to break free, she embarks on a series of affairs, friendships and adventures. Featuring vermin, moustaches, multi-roling, wild animals, French people, and a nun.
This is Madame Bovary like you have not seen it before. This energetic and comical exploration of Flaubert’s complex novel is guaranteed to be an engaging and entertaining evening of theatre performed by our senior students.
The popular CH Big Band performs a programme spanning decades of jazz and swing, also including smaller jazz groups and singers. Book early to avoid disappointment!
