Candlelight Concerts: Purcell by Candlelight
Start time: 8pm
These are a series of chamber music concerts in the intimate setting of Salisbury Cathedral's North Transept. Conductor and Cathedral Lay Vicar, Edward Rimmer is joined by a consort of 8 professional singers as well as period instrumentalists to present a concert of works by perhaps our greatest ever composer; Henry Purcell. The concert will centre around Purcell’s output for the Church; music which is known for its expressive depth, dramatic intensity and inventive use of harmony and counterpoint. The Cathedral’s brand new Klop Chamber Organ will feature in this concert, so it is a good chance to see what it is capable of in an accompanying context.
