Anam - Music to move the soul
St Giles Cripplegate Church, EC2Y 8DA , [Venue Details]As part of VOCES8’s 20th anniversary celebrations, sister ensemble APOLLO5 celebrates its own 15th anniversary performing the group’s new album Anam.
For this project, APOLLO5 has compiled sacred and secular settings of texts by composers past and present, absorbing madrigals, folk and contemporary choral music into a programme of “music to move the soul”.
Anam – which is the word for 'the soul' in Gaelic – is far-reaching in style and geography: a number of the pieces have a strong Scottish or Irish connection, but there are also excursions to Renaissance Italy, Victorian England and present-day North America. Celebrating the rich bardic tradition inspired by human emotion, landscape and heritage, the pieces on Anam are rooted in the essential role of music and words: to stir something in us, to encourage, to comfort, to guide, and to empower.
