Prom Praise comes to the York Barbican

7.30pm Saturday 22 September 2012

Featuring the All Souls Orchestra and Prom Praise York Choir
conducted by Noël Tredinnick
and co-hosted by the Archbishop of York, Dr John Sentamu.

Prom Praise is a wonderful mix of sacred and concert music; blending hymns and worship music with an orchestral backing, alongside selections of secular music. It combines the spirit of “Songs of Praise” with the world-famous “Last Night of the Proms”.

Presented by the All Souls Orchestra under the energetic and inimitable direction of Principal Conductor and Artistic Director, Noël Tredinnick, Prom Praise is a feast of orchestral, solo and choral items. There is an element of celebration too when Noël and the Orchestra invite the audience to stand and join in to sing some favourite hymns and worship songs.

Proceeds from the performance will be given to support the work of the Progressive Supranuclear Palsy Association and the Langham Arts Trust.
