That Passion
NOT MANY VILLAGES can boast two world-renowned artists in their midst, but on
Sunday, 11th of September, Messrs Thomas Newbolt and Ian de Massini, artist and
composer respectively, joined forces in St Cyriac's to tell the story of
the Passion in music and painting. First performed in Ely's Lady Chapel,
Cambridge Voices' magical rendition of Ian de Massini's new composition
to the backdrop of the four compelling Newbolt paintings that inspired it
enchanted the audience.
All involved, artist, composer, choir and orchestra gave of their time freely, and the production raised £300 pounds for St Cyriac's. (Well, we thought it did, but see editorial!).
