Chronos Vocal Ensemble Feb 7

Chronos in rehearsal:

Working through another major work on the program for Uplifted: Gregorio Allegri's setting of Psalm 51 "Miserere mei, Deus"

Written in the 17th century in an already ancient style reserved for use in the Sistene Chapel, the work is a beautiful complex polyphonic antiphonal setting featuring a quartet of soloists.

Come enjoy the full irl 'surround sound' experience in person on Saturday, February 7 at 7:30 in All Saints' Anglican Cathedral, Edmonton

Chronos Vocal Ensemble Feb 6

Chronos in Rehearsal:

Rehearsing for Uplifted, the closing moments of Samuel Barber's Agnus Dei. Another piece on the program that was initially conceived as an instrumental work, Barber wrote this string quartet in 1936.

Performed often and strongly associated with elegiac mourning Barber added the text in 1967, bringing to the surface the work’s inherent sense of spirituality.

Join us for the rest on Saturday Feb 7 at 7:30 in All Saints' Anglican Cathedral, Edmonton

Preparations for Uplifted are in their final stages, and it's going to be a great concert!

Here's a sneak peek at Chronos rehearsing Eric Whitacre's Alleluia, one of a trio of works on the program that feature music reworked from an instrumental piece to a sacred vocal work: Alleluia, Samuel Barber's Agnus Dei, and Zoltan Kodaly's Missa Brevis.

Join us to hear all three on Saturday, Feb 7 at 7:30 pm in All Saints' Anglican Cathedral, Edmonton!
