Beautiful music from Albinoni, Bach and Handel
We return to Guildford Cathedral for our first concert of 2018, a glittering collection of Baroque favourites including Bach’s 3rd Brandenburg Concerto and Magnificat in D, Handel’s stirring coronation anthem, Zadok the Priest and Albinoni’s moving Adagio which many will know from its use in the soundtrack of many films, including Gallipoli and more recently, Manchester by the Sea.

| J.S. Bach: | Ich lasse dich nicht, du segnest mich denn Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 in G (orchestra) |
| Handel: | Let God arise (Chandos Anthem No. 11) Let the bright seraphim (Samson) Let their celestial concerts all unite (Samson) |
| Albinoni: | Adagio in G Minor for organ and strings |
