Glorious Music for Double Choirs
This past year in July, CONCORA presented a concert of music for double choir in the glorious Church of St. Justin in Hartford, a place that is perhaps unparalleled in our region for sheer visual beauty and acoustic splendor. Its various galleries made possible many configurations that created a sonic spectacular for singers and listeners alike.

The featured work performed was Rheinberger’s Cantus Missae, plus antiphonal works by Handl, Biebl, Mendelssohn, Britten, and the astonishing “Kyrie” from the Messe Solonelle by Louis Vierne for choir and two organs.
