Join Nonsuch Singers and their conductor Tom Bullard for a summer's evening concert of a cappella music in the beautiful Priory Church of the Order of St John, Clerkenwell, one of London's hidden treasures.

Shakespeare's classic texts are the inspiration for our music for this concert. We draw upon the works of composers from across the globe, including Jaakko Mäntyjärvi from Finland, and the Swiss composer, Frank Martin. Following on from the huge success of our recent jazz concert, we also include jazz compositions by Ward Swingle and John Dankworth and alongside Vaughan Williams's more familiar settings, we present some gems from lesser known composers, all of them drawing on the genius of The Bard.

There is something here for everyone!
