Description
"Choral Mosaic" is a star-studded programme, as far as composers go. The idea is to give our listeners on the road and at home a concert with great variety and many moods. So we have Britain’s brilliant Britten, Brahms’ most wonderful German motet, Allegri’s four-century Latin hit, a prize-winning tone poem from American Eric Whitacre, and much more. Kevin Zakresky and the Pacifica Singers make an appearance, too!
Repertoire
Benjamin Britten - Choral Dances from Gloriana
Johannes Brahms - Warum ist das Licht gegeben
