The romantic Hymn of Praise (Lobgesang) derives from the famous Beethoven's Ninth Symphony in that it consists of three orchestral movements followed by a long vocal Finale. The composition is very popular throughout the UK and also here in NZ. 'It lies very near to my heart' wrote the composer himself. Bach Musica NZ, conducted by their Muisc Director Rita Paczian, will be joined by vocal soloists Gina Sanders (soprano I), Emma Jones (soprano II) and Ridge Ponini (tenor).
