Timeless Voices, Heavenly Echoes

Join St Peters Singers for an enlightening journey back into musical history set in the oldest church in Leeds!

From Hildegard to Gibbons, this programme tracks how choral music developed across Europe through the Renaissance.

The latest work was composed just ten years before St John's Church was opened in 1634.
English Tudor masters William Byrd and Orlando Gibbons will feature alongside Italian, Spanish and Flemish composers. Two of the earliest known female composers, Hildegard and the Italian nun Raffaella Aleotti, also get to strut their stuff!

Starting at 4.30pm, the concert will be relaxed: you will be able to come and go, and to make the most of this rare chance to take in the superb interior of this ancient building. The church will be open all afternoon, including while St Peters Singers rehearse, so feel free to drop in and be curious!
Admission is free: you will be encouraged to donate to the Churches Conservation Trust who care for the building and to whom all proceeds will be given.
