ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE
One of the most moving works in the choral repertoire, The Dream of Gerontius deals with nothing less than life, death and what lies beyond, as an elderly man faces his mortality, meets his guardian spirit, and glimpses the divine. It’s a profound experience for listeners of all faiths and none, expressed in music to exhilarate, invigorate, calm and console.
