Free Ascension Day Recital

The world-renowned vocal group, The Tallis Scholars, are giving a FREE recital in the Front Hall of the British Library on Thursday 17 May at 1pm, with music by Gombert (In illo tempore) and Monteverdi (Missa In Illo Tempore). This has been organised, rather amazingly, to mark the traditional Feast of the Ascension, although in this country we will for the first time be keeping the transferred feast the following Sunday, 43 days after Easter. If you're in the London area, put the date in your diary!
