Dutch Chamber Choir sings in the Der Aa-church

On Thursday 23^rd October the Dutch Chamber Choir, conducted by Paul McCreesh, will perform a programme of music  by English composers in the Der Aa-church.

Elgar – Give unto the Lord
Gibbons (arr. Dearmer) – Drop, drop, slow tears
Walton – A litany: Drop, drop slow tears
