# Event Details

- **Event Name**: On Faith, Longing And Love
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 24 May, 2026 at 04:00 am (+12:00)
- **Event Description**: The Linden Singers choir is happy to present its first 2026 concert under the direction of Jane Pierard, an icon of  musical and theatre arts in the Hawke’s Bay who has led the choir for the past four years.  
This concert will give you a moment of beauty and joy, something we all need in these somewhat stressful times.  
Sacred motets by 16th Century composers Palestrina and di Lasso, and a later work by Maurice Durufle will express the theme of faith, and songs about love are perennial favourites so we know you will enjoy the familiar melodies of My Love is Like a Red, Red Rose and We’ll Gather Lilacs.   Longing and loss sometimes go hand in hand with love, and this emotion is beautifully expressed in For All We Know, This Nearly was Mine, and the poignant words of Jobim’s Meditation.   But life can also be full of fun, and the patter song Il Est Bel et Bon will bring a smile to your face; written by Pierre Passereau (c. 1509–1547) it depicts hens and roosters singing the praises of their partners!   These are just some of the songs you will hear, and we can’t wait to share them with you.
