We end the week with another superb film from VOCES8 – or more specifically The VOCES8 Foundation Choir, conducted by Artistic Director Barnaby Smith, with organist Peter Holder – of William Walton's The Twelve, a setting of words by WH Auden. 

Recorded at Keble College, Oxford, it was filmed last year for the LIVE from London festival, and also features on the new album from Paul Smith, composer and VOCES8 Foundation CEO, 'Renewal?', out today.

Tickets are also now available for the next in the series of online festivals, LIVE from London Easter, starting April 14. Find out more at VOCES8's website.
