Dante’s poem has some claim to be considered the greatest work of literature ever written, and Dante wrote it intending and praying that the poem might help its readers along the path of salvation. That’s also our prayer as we undertake this journey together - we hope you will join us!

| 6:00pm | Sunday Sundown concert | This week: Listen to Her - Women by Women, performed by Hanover Square Quartet.
They are one of the few UK string quartets playing on gut strings, championing the works of female composers.
This particular programme juxtaposes Mayer's quartet with a movement from the more famous Schubert "Death and the Maiden". They also pair Hensel's E minor quartet with a movement by her more famous brother (Mendelssohn's A Midsummer Night's Dream). The overlap between their musical styles, including direct quotes, is astonishing. It is clear that they were very close and had tremendous respect for each other as composers.
All Sunday Sundown concerts have free admission with a retiring collection for the musicians unless otherwise specified. |

| 6:00pm | Sunday Sundown concert | This week: O Spring Most Fair!, performed by Linnet Baroque.
Linnet Baroque is a collective of talented and experienced early music specialists who have gathered to present virtuosic music from the baroque and early classical eras. There is a strong focus on English music and the ‘bird-song’ genre, where the obbligato instruments and voice are given equal virtuosic opportunities.
This hour of music, embracing the joys of Springtime, begins with Quingard’s aria to the nightingale, a role taken by the recorder. Pepusch wrote his invigorating cantata, addressing the Goddess Flora, in 1710, whilst working as music master to the Duke of Chandos. He worked alongside Handel, who was employed as the Duke’s Composer in Residence. Handel composed several roles for Pepucsh’s wife, the soprano Margerite de L’Epine, and also for Faustina Bordogni, Hasse’s wife. In the Hasse aria, the scorned poet warns his lover that the joys of Spring soon turn to the chill of Winter, a metaphor for fading youth and beauty also reflected in the Dutch composer, De Fesch’s song.
All Sunday Sundown concerts have free admission with a retiring collection for the musicians unless otherwise specified. |

| 8:00pm | Dante Pilgrimage (Online) | A Zoom reading of the whole of Dante’s Comedy, to take place weekly until 29 March 2024. The starting point of this timetable reflects the common critical opinion that Dante’s journey begins on Good Friday.
There will never be any expectation that anyone has read the text in advance. The first ten minutes will go to reading the canto out loud. After that the Minister will usually do a brief introduction, then we’ll discuss together – perhaps in breakout rooms, depending on numbers.
Dante’s poem has some claim to be considered the greatest work of literature ever written, and Dante wrote it intending and praying that the poem might help its readers along the path of salvation. That’s also our prayer as we undertake this journey together - we hope you will join us!
