The BBC Singers and Principal Guest Conductor Owain Park join forces with acclaimed trumpeter Aaron Azunda Akugbo. This radiant programme invites audiences into a world of wonder, exploring the trumpet’s capacity for expressive depth: from the shimmer of moonlight to a blaze of sunshine. Serenity weaves together themes of nature, the heavens, and the eternal. The beauty of the BBC singers anchored by the luminous sound of the trumpet, at times soaring, at times intimate.
