Newcastle University Choir presents Czech composer Antonin Dvořák’s Mass in D Major for the first time in Newcastle on Sunday 13th September at The Harold Lobb Concert Hall, The Newcastle Conservatorium of Music, Laman St, at 2:30pm. Dvořák is known for his lyrical melodies and rhythms based on Bohemian folk-music, the best-known example being his “New World” Symphony. The Mass is another charming example. The program also includes Goodall’s The Lord Is My Shepherd, Fauré’s Cantique de Jean Racine and Saint-Saëns’ Ave Maria. Doors will open at 2pm.
