The Armed Man and The Lark Ascending
In a concert to mark the anniversary of the end of the First World War, The Really Big Chorus presents Sir Karl Jenkins’ 20-century choral classic The Armed Man: a Mass for Peace, coupled with a performance of The Lark Ascending by Ralph Vaughan Williams who served as a medical orderly in that conflict. The violin soloist is Tasmin Little, one of the UK’s best-loved performers.
The Armed Man fuses words and music from many different centuries and cultures in condemnation of war and the misery it brings. The Lark Ascending was written against the backdrop of WWI, and its beautiful soaring melody perfectly captures the essence of the English countryside. It has topped the Classic FM ‘Hall of Fame’ charts a record eight times, and violinist Tasmin Little is one of its finest interpreters.
