- **Event Name**: Spring Concert - Light and Shadows
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 21 Mar, 2026 at 07:45 pm (+00:00)
- **Event Description**: The Yateley Choral Society Spring concert on 21st March is titled 'Light and Shadows.
The theme of the concert illustrates how all of us live with moments of brightness and moments of shadow — times when we feel held and hopeful, and others when we search for reassurance or meaning. The concert will bring together five beautiful choral works that speak to this shared human experience, offering comfort, reflection and, ultimately, hope.
The works include three written by modern composers and two from composers born in the early 19th century.
Composed in 1985, John Rutter’s 'Requiem' was written in memory of his father, using words from a personal selection of texts: the chosen portions being those which underline a theme of light and consolation emerging out of darkness and despair; and, as with more than one twentieth-century Requiem, vernacular texts are interwoven with the traditional Latin. Since its first performance it has become one of his most popular and often performed works.
Will Todd, born in 1970, wrote 'The Call of Wisdom' for the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II. The words are an invitation to listen for guidance in uncertain times — its glowing chords suggesting the kind of clarity that arrives just when it is needed.
It was first performed in 2012 at the Service of Thanksgiving at St Paul’s Cathedral.
Norwegian born Ola Gjeilo composed 'The Ground' in 2010. Based on a chorale from the last movement of his Sunrise Mass, it evokes the feeling of being supported and steadied when life becomes overwhelming.
Josef Rheinberger composed 'Stabat Mater Dolorosa' in 1884 as an act of thanksgiving for the final healing of a long term injury. Through clever harmonic twists and turns, he subtly transforms the atmosphere of suffering and pain into hope and salvation.
Published in 1853, 'Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace' is one of SS Wesley's most famous anthems. It has been performed on many state occasions, including the coronation of Elizabeth II in 1953, not because of its grandeur, but because its gentle harmonies feel like a hand
placed quietly on the shoulder.
