Mozart Fest 2025 Final Concert

Join us for the flagship concert to round off 2025's Mozart Fest. Our concert opens with JS Bach's effervescent Concerto for Two Violins in D minor. 

Concerto for Two Violins in D minor - JS Bach 

Lament for string orchestra - Frederick Stocken 

Requiem K626 - WA Mozart 

Marcel Sinfonia 

London Docklands Singers 

Andrew Campling - Conductor 

Bach's Double Violin Concerto, renowned for its spirit of exuberant vitality, also contains a slow movement of great beauty. The concerto is followed by Frederick Stocken's Lament for String Orchestra; this poignant work has resonance as a meditation on the timeless questions which all suffering awakens. After the concert interval Mozart's mighty Requiem - full of dramatic power and lyrical beauty - is performed. In the words of Karl Geiringer, Mozart's Requiem is a composition 'as transcendental as it is human, and out of tremor and guilt it leads us towards peace and salvation'. 

Marcel Sinfonia The Marcel Sinfonia brings together graduates from leading conservatoires in London such as the Royal College of Music and the Royal Academy of Music. The Sinfonia performs regularly in Southwark Cathedral and St Paul’s Covent Garden, and has also given concerts in Christ Church Cathedral Dublin and the Signet Library in Edinburgh. The orchestra’s repertoire includes concertos by Vivaldi, Marcello, Bach, Haydn, Mozart, Schumann and Poulenc. The Sinfonia’s name derives from the Marcel Suite, composed by the orchestra’s founder and musical director Andrew Campling. This concert is in aid of the Mathieson Music Trust, which supports disadvantaged children in Kolkata, India.
