Songs of Farewell

St Paul's Church, Winchester
8th November 2025, 7:30pm

We return to St Paul’s for our Remembrance-tide concert.

Our series continues with a programme reflecting on hope and faith that is born from loss and sad farewell. Hubert Parry’s Songs of Farewell form the core of the programme: six motets, based on texts spanning the 16th to the 19th century and concluding with extracts from Psalm 39 which seek to look beyond the horror of war to the surety of reunion and repose in heaven.

Looking Back...

2024 was a huge year for Southern Voices. Our ruby anniversary (1984-2024) was celebrated in style! Jamal created five, fabulous events for the year and it was fitting that each event SOLD OUT as the year unfolded.
