Dvorak, Schubert and McDowall

Programme exploring all things choral, including performances and special features.

Sara Mohr-Pietsch introduces an hour of beautiful music for many voices. Today, she presents Dvo艡谩k in jubilant mood in his setting of Psalm 149 for full chorus and orchestra. The Netherlands-based Egidius Kwartet offer Schubert at his most charming and flirtatious, plus a gently uplifting hymn to Motherhood from British composer Cecilia McDowall.
