Downey Master Chorale Debut Concert
After forming a new ensemble in the fall of 2013, the Downey Master Chorale will perform its debut concert on Saturday, December 21 at 7:30 PM.
The performance will be held in the main sanctuary of the Moravian Church of Downey, 10337 Old River School Road, in Downey, just south of Florence Ave.
The performance features "A Ceremony of Carols" by Benjamin Britten. This 1942 suite consists of eleven movements, with text from The English Galaxy of Shorter Poems. Britten (1913-1976) was a central figure of 20th-century British classical music, with a range of works including opera, other vocal music, orchestral and chamber pieces.
Following the intermission will feature several popular Christmas carols from a range of composers, such as selections from "The Seven Joys of Christmas" by Kirke Mechem, John Rutter's "Candlelight Carol" and "Angels' Carol," as well as "Silent Night," "O Holy Night" and "Jingle Bells."
The Moravian Church of Downey is home to a half-century of classical music history, as the home of the Moravian Trombone Choir founded in 1965 by Jeff Reynolds of the Los Angeles Philharmonic. As a special guest, the concert will features an appearance of the Moravian Trombone Ensemble.
Also, attendees will enjoy singing along to their favorite Christmas Carols, as well as the Hallelujah Chorus.
The Downey Master Chorale is conducted by artistic director Margaret Zeleny, and accompanied by associate conductor Chris Squires. For more information, email info@downeymasterchorale.org.
