To mark the International Day of Peace on September 21, The Tudor Consort presents a concert of music with a peace theme, including Arvo Part’s The Beatitudes and settings of the Agnus Dei by Palestrina, Byrd and Josquin. We are particularly thrilled to premiere Gemma Peacocke’s recent commission Pacific which sets to music the words of famous New Zealand peace campaigners.

In all, this was a splendid performance…the music was uplifting and inspiring [and] the audience was rapt.
