Au Fond du Temple Saint

From 'The pearl fishers' by Bizet

Nadir and his friend Zurga once fell in love with the same woman (a priestess), but vowed to renounce that love for the sake of their friendship. Now they meet again and recall the veiled priestess whom they saw passing through the adoring crowd.

Sung here at the afternoon rehearsal of South Devon Choir's Oper Classics concert on 6th July 2019, the baritone is the choirs' conductor John Hobbs and the Tenor is Arthur Swan, who will be joining the choir again to sing the solos in Judas Machabeus by Handel, which is our Christmas concert 2019 - the clapping was from the very appreciative choir as we all listened in raptures!
