About
Tritone Singers is an Isle of Wight choir and was set up by Brian Northcote at Bembridge School in 1975. For almost fifty years the choir has continued to sing a wide variety of choral music.
With 6 members to each voice section, the choir numbers around 24, giving an intimate and balanced sound, under the current MD, Richard Wilkins.
"The Infinite Shining Heavens" features varied choral works from the 16th to the 21st centuries.
Included in the programme is Byrd's Mass for Four Voices dating from 1592, Frank Bridge's Easter Hymn dates from 1912 while Tippett's Spirituals from A Child of Our Time was written 1939-1941.
The Tritone Singers will also perform a piece by Ronald Corp, Justorum Animae, specially composed for a Requiem Mass for Queen Elizabeth II held in September 2022.
The concert title is taken from a work written by the musical director Richard Wilkins. A cornucopia of choral variety through the ages.
