The Guildhall School of Music & Drama in the City of London is one of the world’s top conservatoires.
Directed by Christian Forshaw, its revered Saxophone Ensemble presents ANTHEM, a wonderfully eclectic line up of music, from English composers Purcell and Wesley to Icelandic artists Sigur Rós. Along the way, we hear medieval Catalan songs and twentieth-century minimalism.
The sound of 21 saxophones and percussion in the legendary acoustic of 12th century Temple Church is sure to be an unforgettable experience.
