and
Saturday May 12, 2012 7:30 pm Westdale United Church 99 North Oval, Hamilton.
Our season ends with a feast of sound. 160 voices, the combined forces
of the Bach Elgar Choir and the Masterworks of Oakville Choir,
joining together to sing one of the most profound works in the
repertoire: Vespers by Sergei Rachmaninoff.
This programme also features works for multiple choirs
and brass by the 16th century composer Giovanni Gabrieli.
Written for the stupendous acoustic of San
Marco in Venice this celebratory music requires very large performing forces.
An extraordinary choral event.
