Bristol’s celebrated chamber choir, Exultate Singers, presents a unique contribution to ‘The Art of Flight’ with a host of choral pieces from across the centuries.

The eclectic programme contrasts madrigals inspired by birds and dramatic settings of words from the psalms with exciting contemporary pieces describing the soaring and excitement of aeroplanes and space flight. Some of the music is illustrated by projected images. A wonderfully vivid combination of words, music and pictures.
