Equali for four trombones...Beethoven Serenade to Music....Vaughan Williams Concerto Groso in F.,Op 6 No. 9
Handel
The music in this programme is particularly suited to performance in ecclesiastical surroundings, more especially the first, fourth, and last items. Byrd and Victoria were, of course, primarily composers for the church. Beethoven's three Equali were written for All Souls' Day at Linz Cathedral in 1812; and Schumann's Third Symphony, which portrays a great festival at Cologne, has for the fourth of its five movements a solemn Adagio inspired by a ceremony in the Carhedral at which the Arohbishap was made a Cardinal.
