Virtuoso saxophonist Christian Forshaw is joined by a consort of Tenebrae singers, in an ethereal sequence of penitential settings for Passiontide. Combining elements of ancient and modern to stunning effect, Forshaw and Tenebrae bring new colours and context to music by Gibbons, Tallis and Hildegard von Bingen in a series of new arrangements and compositions, many of which will be performed for the first time in Scotland in this reflective concert.

Booking is now open for both in-person performances at 6.45 and 8.30pm, and live-stream tickets.
