Event

Northern Light - Hyde Park Peformance, 8:00 pm
Showcasing the sophisticated, technically-demanding choral traditions of the Scandinavian and Baltic countries, this program features music composed in the last 100 years.  The works are characterized by sharp contrasts between a basic neo-romantic harmonic language, and surprising dissonance; between complex, driving rhythms, and passages that seem to hang motionless in the air; between idiomatic reflection of bleak, dark, northern winter, and a yearning for the warmth of spring. The program includes Edvard Grieg's final major work, Four Hymns, with baritone soloist Michael Cavalieri;  music of Knut Nystedt, including his most famous motet, O crux;  celebrated Estonians Arvo Pärt and Urmas Sisask;  Swedes Nils Lindberg,  Otto Olsson,  and Jan Sandström;  and Finnish composer Einojuhani Rautavvara, whose Vigilia Chorale performed and recorded in 2011.

Chorale will utilize all of the sonic possibilities and variety of its two venues to present these musical contrasts, and to engage listeners in the high quality, magical sound of this supremely important genre in contemporary choral music.

Free pre-concert lecture at 7:00 pm.
