Brandywine Valley Chorale welcomes back English composer extraordinaire, Will Todd, and the award-winning student choirs of Unionville High School. The concert features (along with other works) the Pennsylvania premiere of Passion Music, his newest accomplishment.
Commissioned for St. Martin-in-the-Fields (the landmark Anglican church located in London), Passion Music recreates events during the last days of Jesus Christ prior to his crucifixion and his death on Good Friday.
Unlike more moderate religious-themed compositions, Passion Music is a modern, energetic blend of jazz and gospel mixed with traditional choral music..
The singers will be accompanied by a seven-piece jazz ensemble and gospel soloist — with Mr. Todd at the piano!
