​

Welcome to the Napier Civic Choir 2025 Season.

 

This year-long concert series takes listeners on a remarkable journey through some of the most beloved and timeless works of the classical repertoire. Spanning centuries and a variety of styles, the programme features masterworks by composers such as Poulenc, Vivaldi, Stravinsky, Britten, Dvořák, Pärt, Elgar, and Mozart, as well as stunning orchestral and choral performances.

 

Highlights include Poulenc’s Gloria, Vivaldi’s Gloria and Ostro picta, Britten’s Serenade for Tenor Horn and String Orchestra, Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 23, Handel’s monumental Messiah, and Haydn’s Nelson Mass. Along the way, the programme explores a rich tapestry of emotions, from the profound depths of Pärt’s Adam’s Lament and Dvořák’s Serenade for Strings to the uplifting and celebratory spirit of Haydn and Mozart.

 

With a mix of choral, orchestral, and chamber works, this series offers a deeply rewarding exploration of classical music’s most exquisite treasures.
