Add Review/Comment

Schola Cantorum sets the stage for a warm and nostalgic holiday – a concert bursting with the festive good cheer of seasonal choral favorites. From sacred carols and hymns to secular classics, including arrangements by legendary collaborators Alice Parker and Robert Shaw, John Rutter’s ethereal What Sweeter Music, Mendelssohn’s familiar Hark the Herald Angels Sing and Herbert Howells’ tender Here is the Little Door, this traditional fare will replace the holiday sprint with bountiful holiday spirit.

    Schola Cantorum and its Music Director Gregory Wait are particularly at home singing in German, and especially when they are singing Brahms. This was particularly evident in Sunday's Beloved Brahms concert, which began on a lighter note with the Liebeslieder Waltzes and, following intermission, Ein Deutsches Requiem. Unlike many performances that feature a full orchestra, this one was accompanied by Schola's Assistant Conductor, Dawn Horst Reyen and Paul Zawilski on piano. This allowed the audience to experience the full range of Schola's considerable dynamic and artistic range. It also permitted the choir to sing more expressively than when singing over heavier instrumentation. This concert was an excellent demonstration of Schola doing what it does best. A very enjoyable autumn afternoon. Collapse
