Thames Philharmonic Choir – Brahms – A German Requiem

 

Thames Philharmonic Choir makes its annual visit to Cadogan Hall with a performance of the stunning Brahms’ German Requiem.

 

Music Director Harry Bradford describes the Requiem as “a message of consolation and hope to the living, a piece like no other. Containing some of the most beautiful melodies ever composed, the piece is a tour de force for choir and orchestra alike. It will be paired with the Tragic Overture and the equally stunning Alto Rhapsody, creating a fantastic celebration of one of history’s greatest musical minds.” 

 

The Choir will be joined by soloists Rebecca Hardwick, Bernadette Johns and Alexander Bower-Brown, together with members of the third cohort of TPC Choral Scholars. They will be supported by the excellent instrumental ensemble, Beaufoy Sinfonia, many of whose players are recent graduates of the major London conservatories, often to be found within the ranks of the UK’s leading orchestras. The concert will be conducted by Harry Bradford.

 

Thames Philharmonic Choir is a vibrant and musically ambitious amateur choir based in South West London. With a repertoire spanning over 800 years, the Choir enjoys performing everything from renaissance polyphony to contemporary compositions and everything in between. They perform with some of the country’s finest oratorio soloists, orchestras and period instrumental ensembles, both locally and in central London venues.

 

Harry Bradford is a prize-winning conductor and choral director working in the UK and Europe. Since winning Second Prize in the prestigious Eric Ericson Award 2021, he has collaborated with a number of the world’s finest vocal ensembles including the MDR Rundfunkchor, the Eric Ericsons Kammarkör, the Sixteen and the Swedish Radio Choir.
