GRACE

We begin our 20th season with GRACE, a concert dedicated to all mothers and their powerful and indispensable role in our lives and societies.
Motherhood embodies grace in its purest form. Mothers nurture and guide us, providing support and love to their children as they grow. They bring life to this world, calling for great strength and resilience in the face of adversity. The bond between a mother and child forms an enduring legacy that transcends boundaries and connects people from all walks of life.
We invite you to reflect on the profound connection between grace and motherhood, delving into the multifaceted ways grace manifests itself in the mothering journey – with emotionally moving settings of the Ave Maria, the intricate musical narratives of Benjamin Britten’s Hymn to St Cecilia, and the exquisite musical arrangements of poetry by Rudyard Kipling and Pablo Neruda.
We hope you find yourselves immersed in the enchanting melodies and remember that music and motherhood share a profound connection through their ability to inspire, nurture, and uplift the human spirit.
