Our season closer celebrates our return to live performance, and will showcase the upbeat side of the choral art form over the centuries, from Sweelinck to Bach to Roxanna Panufnik. We plan to perform old favorites, such as Charles Stanford’s Beati quorum via, and pieces that are new to us and probably to you, including Wake Up, My Spirit, by Adolphus Hailstork, and A Little Jazz Mass by Bob Chilcott. The program concludes with a delightful bit of Americana, a medley of songs from Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Oklahoma.
There will be a preview lecture one half hour before each performance.
