Peter Hill is one of the greatest exponents of the music of Olivier Messiaen and was singly honoured by the composer when he ‘sat-in’ on Peter’s recordings of Messiaen’s ‘Catalogue d’Oisseaux’. Tonight’s concert (mainly for voices but with Peter appearing again as a pianist), focuses exclusively on birdsong. Not surprisingly, Peter Hill has rare and vivid insights (and sounds) of the relationships between birdsong and music. Come and hear him expound on those relationships.
David Hill conductor Peter Hill piano Hailed as one of the greatest choirs in the world, the BBC Singers are famous for their vivid, dynamic and vital performances of music both new and old. This concert sees choral music interspersed with piano works played by Peter Hill, in a birdsong-inspired musical adventure.

All in all, a tremendous chorus of gorgeous harmonies and rich embroideries of sound from nature.
