description
The project will feature two impromptu appearances by the St Peter’s Singers in the Victoria Quarter during shopping hours, and then a live Prom-style concert, on Sunday 6 July at 8.00pm (admission £2), just as Leeds starts to settle down after the huge excitement of the Tour de France’s Grand Depart the previous day. If sufficient funds can be raised, the choir will also record the music for a CD and audio downloads. http://igg.me/at/stpeterssingers

Bairstow Let all mortal flesh keep silence Beamish In the stillness Harris Bring us, O Lord God Harris Faire is the Heaven Jackson Evening Hymn Lauridsen O magnum mysterium MacMillan O radiant dawn Moore Three Prayers of Dietrich Bonhoeffer Parry My soul, there is a country Pärt Magnificat Tavener Take him, earth, for cherishing Whitacre Alleluia
Bring us, O Lord God, at our last awakeningInto the house and gate of heaven,To enter into that gate and dwell in that house,Where there shall be no darkness nor dazzling, But one equal light;No noise nor silence, but one equal music;No fears nor hopes, but one equal possession;No ends nor beginnings, but one equal eternity;In the habitations of thy glory and dominion,World without end.John Donne
