Missa Gaia, 19-21 April 2012

The King’s Chorus and Capella Regalis Men and Boys Choir, under the direction of Nick Halley, will perform the Paul Winter Consort’s wild and dramatic Missa Gaia or Earth Mass in honour of Earth Day Weekend.

Missa Gaia is a jubilant contemporary mass, based on a traditional mass setting, but added to which are the songs of the whale, loon, and the wolf, and the elemental power of African and Brazilian percussion.
