Southbank Sinfonia 2014

On Sunday 9 March the Vaughan held its annual concert with our Orchestra in residence, Southbank Sinfonia. 

Always a highlight of the musical year at the Vaughan, this year's event was our best collaboration to date.

Held in the spectacular setting of the Jerwood Hall, LSO St Lukes, the concert brought the Vaughan's Schola Cantorum and finest orchestral musicians together with the splendid Southbank Sinfonia for what was our sixth year of working together.

The programme consisted of Duruflé's Requiem, sung by the Schola and accompanied by Southbank Sinfonia.

This was followed by a performance of Rimsky Korsakov's orchestral showpiece Scheherezade.

These videos of the rehearsals give an idea of the occasion.

Here are some tweets from the evening!
