Gloria!
The distinguished Stephen Layton, one of the finest choral conductors of our time, returns to direct the Singapore Symphony in this jubilant offering of choral artistry. The celebratory beauty of Britten’s A Ceremony of Carols for voices and harp shares the stage with the otherworldly choral aurora of Rautavaara, before turning to the classics of radiant Mozart, heavenly Bach and the titular piece, Vivaldi’s sparkling Gloria.
