University Choir Spring Concert

21 May 2025, 7:30pm – 9pm, Cope Auditorium

This year’s Spring Concert has a nature theme and will open with a performance of Twelve Trees, with music by Katy Lavinia Cooper and words written and compiled by Catriona Downie. Inspired by trees native to the British Isles, the twelve pieces that make up this work, delve into the history, folk lore and traditional music of these lands. Twelve Trees was commissioned to celebrate the 60th anniversary of Sing for Pleasure and was premiered last August. It is full of folk inspired tunes so, while being new, it’s also very attractive to listen to. The choir has really enjoyed the challenges of learning and performing this piece.
