The Dream of Gerontius, is widely regarded as Elgar's finest choral work, and some consider it his masterpiece. The work calls for a large orchestra, double chorus with semi chorus, and three soloists.

With a fabulous group of soloists:
Deborah Miles-Johnson - Mezzo Soprano
Justin Lavender - Tenor
Jeremy White - Bass
Ely Festival Orchestra
Andrew Parnell - Conductor
This promises to be one of the musical highlights of 2012 in Ely Cathedral
