The UJ Choir will perform Karl Jenkins’ Stabat Mater for their annual project! This piece was composed in 2008 and is based on the 13th century Roman Catholic prayer, Stabat Mater. Jenkins is also the composer of Armed Man which was performed by the UJ Choir in 2007 and Adiemus. Jenkins will visit South Africa in September to conduct the UJ Choir, RAU/UJ Alumni and a 75 piece orchestra in two performances that will take place in the Johannesburg City Hall.
