Join the Cambridge University Symphony Chorus and the East Anglia Chamber Orchestra for an evening of radiant lyricism and orchestral warmth, pairing two masterpieces that reveal the youthful genius of their composers.

Puccini’s Messa di Gloria, written when he was just 22, is a thrilling early testament to the operatic flair that would later define his career. Brimming with soaring melodies, dramatic contrasts, and expressive choral writing, the work combines sacred tradition with unmistakably theatrical colour.

Brahms’ Serenade No.1, written when he was 25, offers a contrasting world of pastoral beauty and classical grace; at once grand and intimate.
