| Tewkesbury Abbey, Tewkesbury GL20 5RZ, United Kingdom Thursday 4-Jul-13 06:00pm Noye's Fludde at Tewkesbury Abbey Britten created Noye’s Fludde – regarded by many as still the most inspired and most inspiring piece of music for young people – simply because he passionately believed in bringing children and adults, amateurs and professionals together for community music-making. And he was good at it – at writing satisfying roles for highly trained professional soloists alongside parts for recorder ensembles, handbell ringers and beginner violinists. Making Noye’s Fludde doable for everyone, but at the same time something of substance and sophistication, was just one aspect of Britten’s genius.
This special Cheltenham Music Festival production will bring together over 200 local schoolchildren – singing, acting, playing, making costumes. Gloucestershire Youth Players’ founder Edward Derbyshire will direct, and the set and costumes will be designed by children’s author and illustrator James Mayhew. | ||

| Tewkesbury Abbey, Tewkesbury GL20 5RZ, United Kingdom Wednesday 10-Jul-13 07:30pm The Tallis Scholars at Tewkesbury Abbey The Tallis Scholars are one of the most globally successful and enduring exponents of a capella choral music, and are celebrating their 40th birthday in 2013. Their director Peter Philips has chosen this programme as a ‘best of...’ sequence of pieces held most dear to him and his elite singers. Alongside English gems by Tallis and Byrd are soaring splendours from Rome—a mass by Palestrina and Allegri’s Miserere—and works by two of choral music’s most popular living composers, Arvo Pärt and Eric Whitacre. | ||

| Tewkesbury Abbey, Tewkesbury GL20 5RZ, United Kingdom Friday 11-Oct-13 07:30pm The Sixteen's Choral Pilgrimage 2013: The Queen of Heaven In 2013 world-renowned choir The Sixteen will present its most far-reaching Choral Pilgrimage tour yet, encompassing 34 concerts around the UK and Ireland. The tour, entitled The Queen of Heaven, will see the choir perform glorious music in churches and cathedrals for which it was written. This will be a must-hear event where the group will take you through the musical evolution of the Allegri’s legendary and much-requested Miserere. The programme also features stunning music by the ‘Prince of Music’ Palestrina, as well as another brilliant yet contrasting setting of the Miserere by James MacMillan. | ||
