National Youth Choir Of Scotland

There can be few more atmospheric settings in which to experience Fauré’s Requiem Mass than by candlelight in the historic St Giles' Cathedral.

Composed ‘purely for the pleasure of it', and much loved for its serenity and soothing gentleness, his Requiem interprets death as a happy deliverance.

Faure’s best-known work returns to the Fringe after a 'glorious' (The Herald) sell-out performance from the National Youth Choir of Scotland in 2012.

Also features James MacMillan's Cantos Sagrados. Beautifully fusing the sacred and secular, this work couples traditional religious texts with poems on political repression in Latin America.
