Description:	PATRONS: Click here to access reserved seating Guildford Choral will present a sea-themed concert with three works: Mendelssohn's Hebrides Overture, evoking the rolling waves and rugged cliffs of the Scottish coastline; Stanford's Songs of the Fleet, a collection of five songs reflecting different aspects of naval life and the emotions of sailors at sea; and Vaughan Williams' iconic setting to music of Walt Whitman’s poem ‘Leaves of Grass’ - A Sea Symphony, which celebrates the vastness and drama of the ocean. Joining Guildford Choral will be the world-class Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra and two exceptional artists: Sophie Bevan (Soprano) and Gareth Brynmor John (Baritone). Sophie has won multiple prestigious awards, and Gareth is an acclaimed Welsh baritone and winner of the Kathleen Ferrier Award. DOWNLOADS Poster PDF / JPG Flyer PDF / JPG
