Join us at our winter concert featuring Gerald Finzi’s Christmas cantata In Terra Pax along with Poulenc’s exuberant (and downright fun) Gloria.
Also featured are:
Byrd - Sing Joyfully
Berlioz - L’Adieu des Bergers (from L’enfance du Christ)
Vivanco - Surge propera amica mea
Poulenc - Exultate Deo
Pearsall - In Dulci Jubilo
Miškinis - Lucis Creator Optime
Trad. Catalan (arr. Chavarría) - El cant dels ocells
Under the Direction of Vicente Chavarría, we are delighted to be joined once again by Peter King on the organ, plus soloists Josephine Goddard (soprano) and Dominic Felts (baritone) at beautiful Christ Church, Julian Road in central Bath.
“To the singing: brilliant throughout. Every member was fully committed, navigating the various styles and vocal demands with consummate professionalism. A feeling of awe was surely
experienced by all”

The Handful’s 20 Year Legacy
The Handful is a vibrant and ambitious chamber choir based in Bath. Founded over 20 years ago, the choir started out as a small ‘handful’ of experienced singers. With former Musical Directors Christopher Finch and then Tomos Watkins, the choir grew both in size and in stature,
enthralling audiences with its fine sound and imaginative programming. Since Vicente Chavarría became Musical Director in 2021, the choir and their audience have enjoyed his exploration of diverse repertoire and commitment to adventurous music-making.
