The concerts comprise settings of texts by both Gerard Manley Hopkins, the most significant poet to have lived and worked in Lancashire, and his first literary promoter, poet Robert Bridges. Featuring Benjamin Britten’s Ad Majorem dei Gloriam, the concerts will also include music by Philip Moore, Samuel Barber, Palestrina and Parry.
The concerts are supported by a gift to Blackburn Cathedral Music by Professor Bruce Redford.
