My next concert with the Philharmonia Chorus is at the Royal Albert Hall with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra singing Te Deum by Berlioz on the 24th of October. This weekend I have to get on with learning the music as am so rusty with sight-reading.
I love the flyers they have printed up for the concert with the picture of stained glass above.
Here's the blurb from the publicity:
An evening of two contrasting choral masterpieces. Fauré’s sublime Requiem which includes the beautiful Pie Jesu and Berlioz’s monumental Te Deum featuring mass instrumental and vocal forces.
Here's a sample of the music. It's beautiful:

I LOVE Faure's *Pie Jesu.* When we did it at St. Andrew's we referred to it as "Jesus Pie." (like, you know, apple pie...)
