-

The Boundstone Chorus will performthe­irspringco­ncert at 7.30pm on Saturday (March 12) at St Michael and All Angels Church, Lancing. The programme will feature three pieces which the choir have been rehearsing this term.

Musical director Aedan Kerney said: “The opening Missa Festiva by the American John Leavitt is considered one of the most important choral works of our time and is gaining the same popularity here as in the United States and on the continent. Each of its movements is beautifull­y set with strength and dignity: Kyrie – a wonderful flowing melody that builds sensitivel­y; Gloria – opening with strength and drive, then exploring delightful harmonies before coming to a big finish; Credo – inspired by mediaeval plainsong; Agnus Dei – another gorgeous melody. Born in Kansas in 1956 John Leavitt has spent his profession­al life as a teacher, composer, conductor and writer.”

Tickets are £10 (under16s £3). You can buy online at theboundst­onechorus. co.uk or telephone 01903 762793 (leave a message).
