Running time This concert will last approximately 2 hours.
An encounter with the spiritual across the centuries with Haydn, Carlos Simon and Davóne Tines.
This inspiring concert will invigorate the senses and move the spirit. Haydn’s turbulent Symphony No. 44 (subtitled ‘Mourning’) is part elegy, part whirlwind – stormy and tender by turn. Simon’s Amen, written two and a half centuries later, evokes the exuberant experience of worship in African American Pentecostal churches. It ultimately reaches – as Simon puts it – a ‘frenzied state’. For baritone Davóne Tines, music can change the world – if we let it. “You have to try to model the world that you want to live in” he says, and tonight he curates and performs in the first Birmingham performance of Mass Reorchestrated - which weaves music by Bach into an urgent, multi-voiced exploration of musical America as it is and as it might be.
