In this concert, the Maastricht Chamber Choir will collaborate with students from the Jazz department of the Maastricht Conservatory.

Refreshing and accessible choral music from the 21st century for choir, harp, piano, string quartet and jazz combo

A jazz combo plays in Bob Chilcott’s Little Jazz Mass. You will also hear works by Gjeilo for choir and strings and a moving work by Patrick Hawes, Song of Songs for soprano solo, female choir, strings and harp. The jazz combo plays an intermezzo that, while improvising, creates a connection between classical music and jazz.
