Celebrating the centenary of the death of Hubert Parry, the programme features two of his much-loved choral works alongside music by his pupils Ireland, Holst and Vaughan Williams. The concert also marks the centenary of Leonard Bernstein, with a performance of his Chichester Psalms. Completing the programme is the first performance of a commission by former BBC Young Composer of the Year.

Arts make life better

Norfolk & Norwich Festival brings tens of thousands of people together in celebration – it has been doing this for 250 years. Through our May Festival and our year-round arts education work, focusing on children and young people, we lead and support celebration, creativity and curiosity in communities across Norfolk and the region.

This year we begin an exciting new initiative, Festival Connect & Create that will bring creative opportunities to those schools and communities with least provision. Creativity transforms people’s lives. It builds cohesive communities, develops vital skills and supports health and wellbeing. We want more people to have access to creative opportunities.

Please consider donating to support and develop this work. With your help we can increase access to the life changing power of the arts.
