Matthew Kaner's Magnificat & Nunc dimittis will receive its world premiere at the London Festival of Contemporary Church Music.
Performed by the Choir of King's College London on 13 May, the piece will sit alongside music by Kristina Arakelyan and Edward Nesbit.
The London Festival of Contemporary Church Music was founded in 2002 by Artistic Director Christopher Batchelor to promote the living tradition of liturgical music for choir and organ. Since then, it has grown from a handful of events at St Pancras Parish Church to a nine-day annual celebration across Easter and St Pancrastide, featuring collaborations with some of today’s best-known composers, a regular choral evensong broadcast on BBC Radio 3, and liturgical services, concerts and outreach all over London.
