    Recomposed by Max Richter: Vivaldi - The Four Seasons in historic Portsmouth | ICN (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Vivaldi's beloved Four Seasons is a hugely popular and familiar work - dare one suggest possibly over-familiar? The baroque masterpiece, as recomposed by Max Richter in an avant garde and minimalist vein over ten years ago now, jolts us into a re-acquaintance with Vivaldi's music. Mystery Ensemble's playing of the Richter re-imagining in Portsmouth's Anglican Cathedral last Friday was a delightful experience. Led by the excellent Reggie Clews as first violin and soloist, the other string players

    The funeral of Fr Stanisław Zbojnowicz, who was stabbed to death in a Benedictine monastery in Jarosław, south-eastern Poland, on 24th September, took place in his home parish in Grzęska, on 29th September where he was laid to rest in the family grave.

    Mark Rylance and Nakeba Buchanan. Image by Suzette Llewellyn Woe to the hypocritical holy men, Christ warned, 'Because you are like to whitened sepulchres, which outwardly appear beautiful, but within are full of dead men's bones, and of all filthiness.'

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    The Gesualdo Six thrilled the Proms audience at the Albert Hall in a late-night Prom last Wednesday. The sweet-voiced singers sang sacred songs medieval and early modern, along with a new creation from their director Owain Park which itself had venerable roots.

This stillness only served to magnify the rich clarity of their melodious voices, apparent from the

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Anyone fortunate enough to be at the Greenbelt festival this weekend will be able to see the British premiere of Francesco, a most moving play with music based on the 'Little Flowers of St Francis, in this the beloved saint's 800th anniversary year. I was fortunate to see a special preview of the piece, written and composed by Daniel Zappi, performed for Palestine in London in June.
