Forty years ago the Derwent Singers and the Sitwell Singers performed the Monteverdi Vespers in Derby Cathedral. It was, according to Press reviews, a hugely successful venture. We are delighted that we are once again coming together for a  very special Anniversary performance of this magnificent work – one of the most  sumptuous and monumental compositions of the Baroque – which reflects the musical splendours of Venice during this period.
