Bath Camerata will perform its traditional concert of music at Wells Cathedral.

Programme:

Allegri: Miserere

Ed Hughes: A Buried Flame - World Premiere Performance funded by the Performing Rights Society

The text is from Psalm 60 and three poems from the collection Poems from Guantanamo, written by current and former detainees at Guantanamo Bay.

'The poems in this collection were written against enormous odds. The men detained in Guantanamo Bay are routinely held in solitary confinement, condemned without a fair trial, many of them tortured. Through it all, some have taken sanctuary in poetry and through [these poems] we hear their voices and glimpse their innermost feelings. Their poems are a remarkable and moving testament to the power of the human spirit.'

Kate Allen, Director, Amnesty International UK

Faure: Requiem

Entrance free - no tickets required. Doors open at 7 pm, Concert begins at 7.30pm.

There will be a retiring collection in aid of Cathedral Music.
